Hi,

I use several messengers on my machinec like MSN, YAHOO, AOL etc., changing the status for all messengers is a major trouble whenever I have to walk away from it. I believe I should not be the only one facing this issue so if you have found some solution to it please lemme know. I know that I can use something like Trillian in place of all the messengers but I like using the individual messengers only.

Thanks in Advance ...

No it cant be helped, you would have to do it manually for each seperate messenger. Some IMs can auto change status after some time, like MSN which shows you away if you are idle for a long time and busy if you run something full screen... Its better to use a multi protocol messenger to manage all together ...
