Settings for file transfer via yahoo protocol on pidgin

Question

OS > Windows Vista Home Premium

I have tried sending and receiving files with my friend who is using yahoo messenger but it fails every time.

Are there specific settings I should use?

-I managed to get msn protocol to work by specifying my public ip and ports to forward.

As a workaround, you could upload the file to a website such as drop.io (with a password) and IM the link.
