How do I change my Rogers Yahoo! Messenger status using the Rogers Yahoo! Toolbar?

The "My Status" menu item of the Messenger button displays the status message that is currently being shown to your contacts in Rogers Yahoo! Messenger, and allows you to change it easily. To change your status message:

1. Click "Messenger" on your toolbar.
2. Click "My Status".
3. Select the status you want to use (Busy, Invisible, etc.).

Any custom status messages you've already created in Rogers Yahoo! Messenger are displayed at the bottom of the list of status messages in the toolbar. However, if you want to add a new custom status message, you must use Rogers Yahoo! Messenger to do so.

If you're not signed in to Rogers Yahoo! Messenger, you can quickly sign in by clicking the "Sign Into Messenger" link under the "Messenger Status: Offline" menu item.

The Yahoo! Messenger button requires Rogers Yahoo! Toolbar 6.2 for Internet Explorer or newer, and Rogers Yahoo! Messenger 7.0 or newer. To check the version of your toolbar, select "About Yahoo! Toolbar" from the Pencil menu. To check the version of your Rogers Yahoo! Messenger client, select "About Yahoo! Messenger" from the Help menu.

If you have Rogers Yahoo! Toolbar 6.2 for Internet Explorer and Rogers Yahoo! Messenger installed, but don't have the Messenger button on your toolbar, you can add it to your Rogers Yahoo! Toolbar now (this requires sign-in).
