How to Find an Invisible User on Yahoo! Messenger

By Alice Hill
RealTechNews

This is a bit stalker-y for my tastes, but I do love technical work-arounds. Case in point: how to see if someone is set to invisible mode in Yahoo! Messenger.

Why: Because we can.
Why Not: Because it helps to take a hint.

Many people nowdays prefer to stay offline while using Yahoo! Messenger - mostly done to avoid someone. There are many ways of finding people who are online but yet invisible.

First Method: Doodle Method
1. Double Click on the user whose status you want to check.
2. A message window will open.
3. Click IMVironment button, select See all IMVironments, select Yahoo! Tools or Interactive Fun, and click on Doodle.
4. The last step and the most important step. After loading the Doodle IMVironment, there will be two possibilities.
a) If the user is offline, the Doodle area will show “waiting for your friend to load Doodle” continuously.
b) If the user is online (in invisible mode), after few seconds (it can take up to one minute, depending on connection speed), you will get a blank page. So the user is online!

    None of these are working anymore. Buddyspy is 10% accurate now :( , invisible.ir sends messages in some cases, so the buddy will know i spy on him. Xeeber worked but now it shows SYSTEM IS BUSY TRY AGAIN LATER, all of the time. Doodle environment is not loading even if the user is invisible and talking to me, and even if it worked, this buddy will see if i’m checking his status if he sees the environment… The linkhttp://mail.opi.yahoo.com/online?u=[username]&m=g&t=2 is a stupid joke, if i’m invisible it shows me offline. So anyone knows other ways? Doodle environment is not loading even if the user is invisible and talking to me, and anyway, this buddy can see if i’m checking his status..
