How to detect invisible Yahoo Messenger users


Locate the widget More Hacking

Just below the header in the right hand side of the home page locate this block.ym step 1

Sign in to your Yahoo account

Move your mouse over 'Messenger'. Did you see the animation? Yup, the default buddy icon removing the mask and revealing himself.


Now sign in using your yahoo username and password.

Check the status, see who is hiding

After you are redirected to the yahoo homepage, move your mouse over 'Messenger' to see how many of your friends are really online (including the ones signed in to his mobile device with status I'm on SMS) and how many are really offline. In my case I found 6 of my friends were online though my messenger showed 4 !! So its pretty simple to understand 2 were trying to hide from me i.e. they are in invisble mode!!

Also note that using this built-in feature you can check your inbox from the MAIL tab (note the tab that says 1 New), tune in to a radio station, check your local weather, find a local address or even check your horoscope! Isn't that great?
