"Behind a firewall?
If you are behind a firewall or using a proxy server, you may be
unable to play Yahoo! Games. Firewalls need to open port 11999. You
will need TCP inbound and outbound access for this port. The games
hosts are currently yog1.games.scd.yahoo.com,
yog2.games.scd.yahoo.com, ... up to yog55.games.scd.yahoo.com.
You will need to do a nslookup on these hosts to find out the IP
addresses. "

LOL this is meant to be the HELP file!
