It may have changed since the last time I used it, but you can try clicking on the person's profile.  Up top, where it says when they were last active, if it says 'online now', click on the smiley face.  A messenger window should pop up.  Hope this works.

You need to check if your internet is connected up properly, if so then check the services on .net messenger. this may be their problem in recognising your Key Port. if your internet is not connected up properly then you must either sort this out yourself or get your internet provider 2 check it out for you.

In your away settings, set it to invisible. You can be online but you will not appear so.

Check the messenger window for options, preferences or tools.  There will be a place where you can select or deselect the option which starts IM when your computer starts.  Turn it off and you will have to manually log on.

What's most probable is that either some aren't online, they're blocking you, or they are online and just put they're status as offline. You can get Blockchecker for MSN if you want to know if they're blocking you.

It's a privacy setting in Yahoo Messenger.\n\nStart up Yahoo Messenger and click Messenger > Privacy Options > and UNcheck the little box that says "Allow Yahoo! Websites to show when I am online" > click the Apply button, then click OK.\n\nThat's it!

Make yourself look unavailable..or put up the busy signal on  your msn if you are only able to talk to one person at a time, that way if they message you then you can ignore them but it wont look like you are because  your icon says busy. There is nothign rude with that..and if you want to speak to someone else just tell the other person you have to go and they will not be able to tell if you are online or not.
