    Its an authenticated proxy (do you have to input a username/pass when visiting a website)? If so, find where you input the user/pass in Yahoo settings.

    or

    Try this. Its a web-based version.

    or

    Google your way out of it. Try this.

    or

    Find one of those clients that run multiple IM services (MSN + Yahoo + ICQ etc.) I can't rec because I don't use any.
