ave got the solution, if you are using the latest version (same as mine) go to messenger at the top of the tool bar, and click on preferences
wen u check the connection setting u would see a option that asks you if you want to connect directly to the internet.
that option is selected and that is the problem.
intstead select the second option which says:
HTTP Proxy.
If u select that option and click okay, your problem should be solved. let me know if its not solved.

I have the same problem. I redownloaded all different versions, i tried everything, it’s not working. All it says is ‘Error 81003005′ and I can’t seem to get online anymore. At first it was fine, until all of a sudden, it’s all messed up. It seems that there is a lock on my internet connection, although i checked it & says it`s fine. I do not know what to do.

SIGNING IN ISSUE RESOLUTION: YM does NOT like control/special characters in passwords! I had an apostrophe in mine and would get the beloved 81003005 error. But I could log in via the web version with no problem. RESOLUTION: Sign into your Yahoo account and change your password to NOT include special characters. Some may work but I KNOW apostrophe’s do not!
