Yahoo openid website compatibility


I am using Dope-openid library in my website but while logging in with a yahoo account users get a message above Click "Agree" to sign into www.mywebsitename.com using your Yahoo! ID.
Warning: This website does not meet Yahoo!'s requirements for a website address. Do not share any personal information with this website unless you are certain that it is legitimate.
I don't get this message when I use my yahoo openid with stackoverflow or plaxo. Do you have to partner or like register your site info somewhere at yahoo before using yahoo as an openid provider on your site? Does anyone know what I am doing wrong here... Thanks
