I too have this problem, but doesn’t matter which version I use, and it happens in stages. I can go days without it happening, then have it happen for a few days when a friend IM’s me or comes online etc.

Just a matter of Yahoo liking me and letting me know they haven’t forgotten about me is what I started telling people lol

But yeah, I got frustrated enough one day when I couldn’t sit still longer than 15 seconds for a good two hours. Was really tempted to throw my computer out the window lol

I’ve also been experiencing this. I am on a wireless connection, however I don’t think it is the issue as everything else works fine. Also, I’ve noticed that if I turn off YTunnel and then use Messenger, I don’t have this problem. Seems like a Tunnel issue to me.
