Adium 1.3.4 won't log in to Yahoo

[cutesd]

I'm on Mac OS 10.5.7, Starting 2 days ago Yahoo started to have difficulty connecting. Yesterday I went into my preferences where Yahoo just said "connecting". I disabled then re-enabled Yahoo and it connected immediately. Today I've tried multiple times to connect to Yahoo and all it says is "connecting". I've tried restarting the program and the computer, I've tried deleting and re-adding my yahoo account. If I go to the Yahoo site and log into my mail, messenger loads up no problem.

Having tried all the other suggestions, I ran the debug script after booting up with shift so adium logged into neither account. Then i tried to access yahoo account.

here's the content of the log:
