YMessenger - online friends are shown offline

Hello!

Some days ago something strange happend to my Yahoo Messenger. All friends that are online are shown offline. I can not do anything. Removed ".ymessenger" folder and reinstalled the RPM from messenger.yahoo.com but it's the same.
Had someone else this problem? Can somebody help me please with this?

I would use Gaim, but I'm behind a proxy and port 5050 is blocked and cannot connect

Running Fedora Core 3.
Thank you for the help!
Boby

reinstall?

also you can change the port that gaim uses for the connection

edit:

in gaim go to accounts, select the yahoo account click modify, select more options
there should be an option the change the port there

It doesn't connect on my network too I'd love to use GAIM but I think I have no luck.
