Eric, you misunderstand. When I use ICQ3.0 X, my ICQ info that I enter 
works. I connect, I chat, etc. When I put that same info 
(username/password) into fire.app, no connection.

Same for YahooIM. Using their YahooIM app, I connect. The same info into 
fire.app = no connect.

Am I missing something? I thought that by claiming to support the 
YahooIM protocol, I could use my YahooIM account info in fire.app to 
chat/IM with it.
