can apply stealth settings to those on my yahoo messenger bud list but not those in adrs book. y not?

Answer 1

actually, if you don't want people on your addy list seeing that you are online by going to address book, you can go to your yahoo profile, click on my accounts, click on edit my profile and, down about 2/3 of the way down your screen, you'll see where it says, Check box to hide my online status from others.
