Dear George,
I understand that you have disabled Norton firewall and bypassed the cable
router; however, this issue continues.
According to the Yahoo web page, this problem may occur when the network
connection to the Yahoo! voice servers has been broken. There may be a
problem with your connection to your ISP, or the problem may be further
along the path to Yahoo!. For more information, please refer to the
following link:
http://help.yahoo.com/help/sg/mesg/use/mvoice/mvoice-16.html
This problem seems to be unusual. To isolate this issue, please go to the
following Yahoo web page and click the "Clicking here" link to test whether
you can connect to the Yahoo Chat server on the Windows XP machine:
http://help.yahoo.com/help/sg/mesg/use/mvoice/mvoice-20.html
In addition, I still suggest that you perform the steps in my previous
post. According to Yahoo web page, the current list of Yahoo! Voice Chat
servers is the following. Please check which server your Windows 2000
computer uses and then test to ping the Chat server on the Windows XP
computer.
v1.vc.scd.yahoo.com (66.218.70.32)
v2.vc.scd.yahoo.com (66.218.70.33)
v3.vc.scd.yahoo.com (66.218.70.34)
v4.vc.scd.yahoo.com (66.218.70.35)
v5.vc.scd.yahoo.com (66.218.70.36)
v6.vc.scd.yahoo.com (66.218.70.37)
v7.vc.scd.yahoo.com (66.218.70.38)
v8.vc.scd.yahoo.com (66.218.70.39)
v9.vc.scd.yahoo.com (66.218.70.40)
v10.vc.scd.yahoo.com (66.218.70.41)
v11.vc.scd.yahoo.com (66.218.70.42)
v13.vc.sc5.yahoo.com (66.218.70.43)
vc1.vip.scd.yahoo.com (66.218.70.44)
If anything is unclear, please feel free to post it.

| Laura,
| I have no problem accessing any web pages on my XP box.
| I have Norton Internet Secutity that acts as my personal
| firewall and anti-virus (Windows fw is not activated). I
| have deactivate Norton and also to bypass my cable route
| but it didn't fix the problem either. The Laptop running
| w2k also runs Norton IS that is configured exactely the
| same way as my XP box. I uninstall MSN, tried deactivate
| QoS but have been unlucky so far. Since I keep my winXP up-
| to-date on a regular basis using the windowsupdate web
| site, I was wondering if there was a security patch that
| could cause the issue....
| I've tried yahoo with only one other party so I cannot be
| sure that the problem is not on his side. But yet again,
| the Laptop running w2k worked fine.
| I hope this helps.
|
| Regards,
| Georges
