Hi Chrissy, thanks for such a quick reply. I haven't actually installed Yahoo messenger yet. I was just curious how that feature worked. I would definitely want to be able to turn that feature on and off, as like you said, I would not want just anyone contacting me all of the time. How then, does that work in reverse i.e do I end up with a list of strangers on my screen that I will need to navigate around, or do you go into a seperate area to view people online? thanks again Jason
