windows blocked internet access to yahoo IM

Posted: 07-24-2008, 02:26 AM
I was using yahoo im when a version of internet explorer hung up on a page.
When I was trying to shut off the computer, I got the message "yahoo IM is
trying to connect to your computer allow or deny access". Thinking I wanted
my computer to stop being hung-up, I said "deny access". Now I think the
connection for yahoo IM is blocked through windows some how. This is what
I've done so far

1) tried disabling windows firewall and tried adding yahoo
2) tried rebooting
3) tried reinstalling yahoo IM
4) tried system restore of an earlier check point this morning
5) tried clearing cookies and temporary internet files
6) tried creating and logging in with a DIFFERENT yahoo ID and account

I've tried to search through the security info but I can't seem to access
any logs or direct info. It's making me crazy!!! Does anyone know where I can
change the access to the internet for different programs?
