MemberHave you tried things such as doing a clean install of Yahoo?
Also, try this thread, with tips on how to stop yourself getting booted.

MemberI think it might be a 6.0 bug with some people. I have a friend in Germany that I notice gets bumped off when I sign on and then signs in a moment later. I have noticed her going offline at other times and I think it’s when friends sign on. I don’t boot, know how to boot or care to learn how to boot, so it’s just a Yahoo! think. Do you get booted with all friends coming on or just some?

MemberI don’t see it mentioned at all, but I am guessing that you have run all of the spyware checkers and virus dectection programs?? That might be the place to check first…it may have to do with the version change, OR it may have to do with something that got onto your PC around the same time, just something that came to mind. Also, do you have any other programs running at the same time which might conflict?
