The necessary plugins - yahoo.dll, jabber.dll and msn.dll - are installed with Miranda by default (unless you unchecked those protocols during the installation process). Double check please if they are enabled in the options (Miranda IM Options >> Plugins). If they are not, enable them and close/restart Miranda. Then make sure that they have been configured correctly (Miranda IM Options >> Network >> Yahoo/Jabber/MSN).

If you do not have any of those .dll's, download a .zip archive of your version of Miranda and install them manually: copy the .dll file(s) into the Plugins folder and close/restart the program. If you have Miranda 0.7.x, you can get the .zip archive from the downloads site (click on "Alternate downloads").

If you have any issues with that, please provide your versioninfo:

1. Download and install the Version Information plugin.
2. Right click on Miranda icon in the tray and select Main Menu >> Version Information.
3. Copy the report generated by the plugin into your post.

If the plugins are installed and configured correctly, but you still cannot connect, please provide a network log:

1. Set all protocols to Offline.
2. Open Miranda options, select "Network" in the tree", click on the "Logging..." button and enable logging to a file (checkmark "File" and browse to the file where the log should be saved).
3. Select the protocol you are having the problem with from the Status menu and click on "Online".
4. Wait until the network activity stops or you get the error message.
5. Zip up the log file and upload somewhere (if you have no web space, you could try e.g. http://uploaded.to/). Or paste the plain text here: http://miranda.pastebin.ca/.
6. Disable logging and post a link to your log.

If you do have the plug-ins installed and enabled, please make sure the login details are correct.

For MSN you need to enter complete e-mail address as username, i.e. [email protected].

For Yahoo, you only need to enter the ID, without @yahoo.com, i.e. johnsmith.

For GTalk, you need to enter the ID as username (i.e. johnsmith), login server will usually be gmail.com (if your address is i.e. [email protected]) and 'Use TLS' should be enabled, automatically switching port to 5222.

On most systems, there's no need to use Expert settings such as 'Manually specify connection host', however Windows9x may need those settings enabled and correctly filled in.

If you're trying to connect using global status, please make sure the respective protocols are not locked. If left-clicking status icons in statusbar displays a dimmed menu header icon (like a pressed button), then the protocol is locked; please click the header once to unlock. Check all protocols and repeat where necessary.

You might need OpenSSL installed. Please grab the Light version from here, install it and then try the settings again.

If you have any stray libssl32.dll, ssleay32.dll libeay32.dll around, please delete them before installing the above.

[judylynn1949]

did that before

OK, please follow Tara's suggestion in post #3 and post a network log. Hoepfully someone will figure out what's wrong.

And please don't rule out double-checking any firewall/router you might have running.
