Ya, I would also like to know. Blocking people is a right PITA.
Blocking in yahoo is like deleting in MSN, with an additional block. This feature, like MSN would be very handy.

Actually you cannot block someone on Y! Messy that is on your friends list. So in order to block someone on Y! Messy you must remove them off your list making this solution ineffective.

well….The thing is..I don’t want to be seen as ONLINE to one particular person..but I want everyone else to see me as online. And cos it’s not an alias but my actual ID(which I can’t turn offline) It’s abit difficult :(:(:(:D

Intoblue all you can do is remove them from your list and then place thier id into your ignore list. They will still see you online but you wont get thier PM’s. If its someone you dont want to do that to then your out of luck. With the way Yahoo works thats your only choice.

There is another way some where in this forum is a post to remove your id from someone elses messanger if you dont want this person to see when your on line remove your self from thier messanger. but also rememeber if you can remove your self without their permission there is also a program that will let you add someone too without them knowing .hope this helps .

Thanks guys ;)….This has been a great help. But I had to be a bit drastic..I deactivated my whole ID and now I don’t go by that ID anymore and no one will ever see me online ever again!! OMG! But I have a new ID and I now only chat using my aliases and I’m never ever going to give anyone my Yahoo ID for chatting on messenger!! Oh well…:o
