Find who is Invisible on Yahoo messenger

This method doesn't actually detect invisible users (who
set his/her status as "Invisible"), but will detect users that uses
Stealth Settings to hide from you!


As you may know, Yahoo! Messenger version 6 adds a new feature that
lets users select which contacts they don't want to be visible to.

It is done by right-clicking a contact and selecting Stealth
Settings from the menu, as shown in the picture on the left.

Now you can find who hides from you! Use the form below,
just fill in the username of the person who you suspect hiding from you
and click the Check Status button!

Username:

Result: <none>

However I found this cannot work for users who have opted in to
something like "Don't show my status to Yahoo! web sites". But these kind
of users are rare.

it works !!

Sometimes some of your friends who appear offline in
yahoo messenger may not be actually offline,they may in the 'Invisible'
mode.This maybe if they are trying to ignore you or are too busy to talk to
anyone.



There is this small trick that you can use to find out what the
truth is.



Firstly open your yahoo messenger main window and double click
on the name of the person whom you want to check.The chat window will open
obviously.



Click IMVironment button, select See all IMVironments, select
Yahoo! Tools or Interactive Fun, and click on Doodle.

After loading the
Doodle imvironment there can be two possibilities



1.If the user is
offline Doodle are will show this "waiting for your friend to load Doodle"
continuously .See in the picture below:

2. If the user is online (but in invisible mode), after few
seconds (it can take up to one minute, depending on your connection speed), you
should get a blank page like in the picture below.So you know that the user is
online.

Alternate Method:

Chose a person you want to check .Double click to open
the chat window.Now simply invite the person for a voice conference.This is done
by clicking on the "conference' button on the top of the chat window.

If the
talk button appears and turns green then that person is online.But if you
receive the message 'Voice chat could not be started ' then the person is
offline.



Note:Some people use softwares like buddy spy to check who is
invisible.I DONT RECOMMEND you to use such third party softwares as they can
expose your Pc to hackers by sending your personal information and can even
steal information from your Pc.So avoid such softwares and instead use the
simple tricks given above.
