Is there a way to block that?

I appear offline in YM and have checked the “hide my status” in my profile and on all boards . . . But YM buddies can still go to the “Contacts” tab in Yahoo EMAIL and see if I am actually online, even when I’m invisible in Yahoo Messenger.

The reason I need to do this is that a few of my friends don’t respect that I work From Home and use YM to communicate with biz associates. I remain inviz to them during business hours, so they’ll let me work.

But one of them has figured out that he can check his contacts list in Yahoo Mail and find out if I’m actually online, even though I appear to be offline in Yahoo Messenger. Now he IM’s saying he knows I’m actually online.
