Most Instant Messengers offer a function to hide your real status from your contacts and buddies by showing a faked offline status. People use it mainly to be able to work uninterrupted.

There is however a way to find out if your Yahoo contact or buddy is really offline or only faking that he is offline. It basically lets you detect if they use the invisible mode in Yahoo Messenger.

The easiest way is to use a script like that offered by Xeeber. Just enter the Yahoo ID of your contact or buddy and wait for the script to display the result. You will find out if he is using the invisible mode or really offline.

None of the sites you have listed have worked for me. Not Buddyspy or Xeeber. I checked for friends who were invisible and it didn’t find them and they were online. I also put in my name and I was VISIBLE and it said I wasn’t on. So try again. I hate it when people are trying to sell a site. Just be honest.

it’s work, I always use xeeber to found out about my friend, as for invisible status, it’s will show as invisible even if they are ofline,( in this case, they logged as invisible till they logout, so the the status still INVISIBLE even if they are online) you have to wait for them to login and change their status to online,but it’s work Great for stealth status, it will show that their are ONLINE XD

This crap doesn’t work! Here are three simple steps. If you want to find out if a buddy is hiding in yahoo just do this: (1.)open a brand new window with them, but don’t type anything, next, (2.)buzz them! and (3.)immediately open the “Doodle” environment, if they’re online but hiding or “invisible” it will not load. If “Doodle” loads, that person is online, and they are not online in ymail, they are online in ymessenger. Try that one!
