Its strange problem: I have MTNL broadband connection at home with D-Link ADSL modem/router with which Linksys WRT54G router is attached (used as access point). I have been using this setup for few months now without any problem - that is till now...
For quite some days I had been unable to go to Yahoo's sign-in page. First I thought it to be problem with Yahoo but when even after few days I couldn't go to the sign-in page I suspected some problem with windows. So I booted-up in OpenSuse linux (i have dual boot system) and tried to go to Yahoo's sign-in page again. Again the same problem occurred. To make sure MTNL was not blocking the page I used MTNL connection at my office computer. I was able to log-in without any problem. Back home I tried to go to Yahoo's sign-in page using my WiFi enabled PDA and my laptop (connection through Linksys router). I was able to log-in without any problem. But when I tried the same with Windows/Linux again on my computer I met with same old problem. What is causing this problem? I have not installed any program which might give this problem (even if I did then why does Linux give the same problem?). Please Help!!

Check if the ip of yahoo is blocked in the router itself.

Yeah that's true praka123, the firewall is doing the nasty things. *gigasmilies.googlepages.com/30a.gif.
@Monkey, Please set the firewall in allow all position and check if yahoo is opening. *gigasmilies.googlepages.com/32a.gif

you are right,problem with some firewall issue only, vtunnel.com and sizloxy.com are the best proxies bypassing firewall restrictions, his problem was some what peculiar here, how only yahoo cannot being accessed here? so we suggested some proxies,mean while i provide solution for him if i find one,praka already suggested to remove firewalls from black list which i always suggests, let's wait and see until he responds whether this worked or not

Nice to hear your problem being solved,By default some firewalls especially like zone alarm, makes some servers entry to be in black list, so all the traffic both incoming and out going to blocked server is unreachable,hence server doesn't open anymore
