Yahoo contacts not working in Windows Live Messenger

I have both Windows Live Messenger, and Yahoo. The problem is that my Yahoo
contacts are not showing as online in my WLM. They are invited, have
accepted, and are in my WLM but the problem is that they do not appear online
when infact they are.
Is there any way that I can fix this issue.
Thanks
Shelley

The service is going out of beta today...

http://news.yahoo.com/s/afp/20060927...ernetmessaging

if its not fully enabled yet, it will be....

I had this enabled, when still in beta by going to live and yahoo sites and
agreeing to the beta
agreements.... and only after clicking on those links was I able to use the
integration of the 2 networks.

It is really the problem with my Windows Live Messenger, not the Yahoo
Messenger. My contacts for MSN show online in the Yahoo Messenger, BUT in the
Windows Live Messenger my contacts do not show as online at all, when in fact
they are online. So the problem is to fix the Windows Live Messenger so that
I can see my Yahoo Contacts online.
Can this problem be fixed?
Thanks for helping
Love
Shelley

I just went and checked the live and yahoo sites and saw that they have
removed the beta
links from their sites.. so I guess the service is alive now....

If you guys are sure you all got the latest versions of messengers then just
wait until tomorrow...

they are probably working on it

one of my yahoo contacts is showing as "online" all others are showing
offline even though they are online.
Strange things are afoot at the circleK

Shelley - Thanks for letting us know. I will let people know there are some
issues here and see if we can sort it out. If anyone else is having trouble
seeing yahoo buddies - please add on to this thread.
