Check Who is Invisible/Online on Yahoo Messenger!

One of my Orkut friend Niharika Arora asked me on Orkut how to check if a person is online on yahoo messenger? I googled for sometime and here are my tested results…

First let me tell you coolest thing about hacks in this tutorial. They do not require a targeted yahoo user to be on your friend list! Now..

To Check Online Status:

This will work only if user is online and NOT into invisible mode. Invisible part is covered later… 😉

First Official Way: Go to Yahoos profile directory and check target user profile. Say you want to check status of someone (where someone is Yahoo ID). Now suffix someone to URL http://profiles.yahoo.com/ so it will become http://profiles.yahoo.com/someone. Open final URL in browser and the profile will have status indicator!

Another Way: There are many simple sites which takes Yahoo ID and returns status of Yahoo user. I have tested http://www.blockstatus.com/yahoo/status-checker successfully!

This part is not a hack but official Yahoo feature documented here.

If you want PHP code to create a status-checker page of your own, this page may help you.

To Check Invisible Status:

I tested and used a third-party program named Buddy-Spy! Unlike above this requires a Yahoo account. I strongly discourage using your own Yahoo ID. You better create a new one! 😉

Following is a screenshot of my test result, which says everything.

Yahoo Visible

Also point to note is that I was not in friend-list of Yahoo account used for testing! 😀

Update: Try http://yahoostatus.ro/. Its tested, working fine and web-based! (Added October 7, 2008)

hey, I know of another simple trick to know if your friends are online…Open a window for a chat with them, then load the Doodle IMVironment…It will not load until your friend has your chat window open…send an IM like “hi” or something like that…This will open a chat window on their computer if they are online and the IMVironment will load completely…If it doesn’t, then it means that they really are offline…If u are on the recieving end of this trick, just disable your
IMVironments…

Rahul Bansal March 5, 2008

@Wulf
Is this works with new Yahoo messenger?
Actually I tried it on version 8 and above but got no results! 🙁

Ronal Bhattarai July 24, 2010

just simply open http://www.yahoo-status.com and type yahoo id and u will know whether a person is online or invisble or offline

soleh March 7, 2008

Probably we can just BUZZ everybody in the group by using send to all. We might get answer from some of them.hehe

Rahul Bansal March 9, 2008

@soleh
Ya.. That cud be a solution too! 🙂

Wulf March 9, 2008

I don’t know how it works in the new versions, all my friends have disabled IMVs…

Rahul Bansal March 11, 2008

@Wulf
I guess it stopped working from version 7.
Cause all posts/articles mentioning IMVs hack are quite old now.
By the way some day this will also get outdated… so lets stick too wats working today!
Anyway thanks for useful comments… 🙂

Janet January 18, 2012

Rahul Bansal March 20, 2008

@adi
Gmail Chat invisible feature is quite new…
So I guess it will take time before someone discover a hack for it.
Of course, if I happen to find something I will post it here! 🙂

You may subscribe to my RSS feed or email alert to receive automatic updates in future!

adi March 23, 2008

thanks rahul for replying me 🙂 and thanks to ur e mail alerts option 🙂 i subscribed it and came here as soon as i got alerted 🙂 very usefull facility :)thanks to U! THAKS TO TECHNOLOGY!….
so….
mmmmm ok ….i understand that gmail invisible thingy is quiet new ….i also searched alot for the hack i want…. want to know who is UNDER THE CLOAK ! lol …ok i than u in advance for saying “Of course, if I happen to find something I will post it here! ” 🙂 i will keep visiting this page then 🙂 uuuuuuhhhhhhh now off to see recent entry of netmeter 🙂
bye take very good care !

Rahul Bansal March 24, 2008

@adi
Thanks for your appreciation buddy! 🙂

Now a small correction, by “…I will post it here…” I meant I will post new hack on this blog.
So instead of keep visiting this page,

you can subscribe to RSS feed or email alert to receive automatic in future!

If you choose to go for email alert, you will receive whatever all future posts right into your inbox! 🙂

adi March 24, 2008

u not poting new hack here?? not here ?? … mmmmm ok so i am going to bookmark ur whole site 😉 lol so i will come and visit ur workshop and keep track when that required hack will be out 🙂 and i hope as soon as it comes out somewhere in internet,, it wont take much time to reach to this workshop site lol …. so… now off to book mark whole homepage of this site 🙂 here i go to home page and here i press ctrl+D 😀 lol
bytheway,, i am ashamed to tell that i know nothing about this feed thing neither about digg nor delicious 🙁 uffffff i must search wikipedia for it…. RSS i know is just one …political…erm…social party in india :P…. ok ok i am going to learn about this “FEED” THINGY at my OWN ,, I dont want spoon “FEED” this time 😉

Rahul Bansal March 24, 2008

@Adi
Hey its k buddy!
Simplest you can do is put your email id in email alert form and click submit.
You will get a confirmation email from feedburner service. You have to open it and follow confirmation link .
Once you done with that anything I post here will be sent to your email address automatically… 🙂

jashen April 9, 2008

i installed the spyware thing. i have 1 query…well i created another yahoo address.i checked the status for my ‘real’ address by signing into yahoo. lets say my email ad. is like [email protected]. what if there are different addresses such as [email protected] or [email protected]
how do u know which address you’re checking for…i had this problem as i was trying to check the status of a @yahoo.co.in address…

Rahul Bansal April 9, 2008

@jashen
I got your point!
But when say first sam creates an account – [email protected], other sam(s) won’t be able to create – [email protected] or [email protected] or anything in another country level domain.

Jack April 10, 2008

There is a one click way to do this with a tiny javascript snippet saved as a bookmark in your toolbar (a bookmarklet)

copy this code, save it as a bookmark

javascript:void(q=prompt(‘Enter Yahoo! user ID’,”));if(q)void(location=’ http://opi.yahoo.com/online?u='+q+'&m=g&t=2'+escape(q))

click on it in your toolbar, you will be prompted for the username…..

Rahul Bansal April 10, 2008

Jack
Will surely try this! 🙂

tinku April 15, 2008

but instead we can use thse sitez na

http://www.xeeber.com

http://www.invisible.ir

[:)]

Rahul Bansal April 15, 2008

@tinku
Thanks I will try them.
Actually I tried xeeber at the time of writing this article but it was giving error, so did not mention about it.
I will test again both now.. 🙂

Update:Both are not working! Giving “Server is busy” error message. 🙁

Tim April 16, 2008

http://lolemxixon.com/yahoo you can check invisible there.

Neo April 17, 2008

xeeber and invisible.ir dont work anymore
this one is better at finding meebo users
http://invisible-scanner.com/

Rahul Bansal April 18, 2008

@Neo
Thanks Neo.
Link given by you really works… 🙂

sushant April 17, 2008

hi friends
may i find how i know of my friends online on orkut

Rahul Bansal April 18, 2008

@sushant
There is no formal way but generally friends shown in profile or homepage sidebar are sorted accoriding to their online status.
Order is – Most recently online friend shown first!
So you can count on it somewhat… 🙂

Rahul Bansal April 18, 2008

@Tim
Thanks to u 2 buddy! 🙂
http://lolemxixon.com/yahoo also works…

But I guess their server is having downtime issues… 🙁

tinku April 19, 2008

they work for me seriously

ollie April 21, 2008

buddy spy works well for me.
What I want to know is how to tell when an ID was first registered or what the person ‘join’date was.

Rahul Bansal April 24, 2008

@tinku
Yep… Thanks for positive feedback… 🙂

@Ollie
I guess finding joining date will be hard. It may not be available publicly…

adi April 24, 2008

i have a wild method to guess joining date lol its not accurate but just for fun u can try this…. applicable for yahoo only… see,, normally atleast a non techie person doesnt update his or her profile in yahoo account… so when we see yahoo profile it says last modified or last updated and i consider that date is the joining date itself … just a wild guess…

Rahul Bansal May 3, 2008

@adi
Hey buddy sorry for late reply as I was offline on a long vacation…

Yeah, I agree with you as most yahoo profiles never updated. May be yahoo users are more interested in their profiles at social networking sites like facebook, orkut, etc… 🙂

tester April 25, 2008

i download buddy spy2.2.19, i can not use bot to log in yahoo sever, someone can help me? thank you.

Rahul Bansal May 3, 2008

@tester
First sorry for late reply as I was offline on a long vacation.

Now about your problem… You may use your yahoo account to login or create a fake one! 😉
Rest you can use some online status checker as mentioned above…:-)

@Dunn
I have 2-3 options for MSN messenger in testing. Will post about them if anyone of them work! 🙂

Why don’t you check again using another yahoo account?

andrews July 24, 2008

well … if tried everything, cause i think a friend of mine is hidding from me, so i tried a few sites.

http://detectinvisible.com/

http://www.invisible.ir/

http://www.myspytool.com/members.php

but all sites gave all different messages … one said offline and the other said online … so it’s confussing. best thing is (i think) to ask the person, hope she tells the truth, altough the doodle thing was right. it stayed so i think she was realy off-line .. hmm

shaabelithaa February 19, 2011

Sunny January 6, 2009

I got buddy spy at my office and at home but the program at my office doesn’t show if the person is using the webcam or not, but my home computer does. Is that because of the firewalls? Is there a different configuration that I need to set up? Thank you.

Rahul Bansal January 7, 2009

@Sunny
I am not sure about firewalls but if you put proxy settings in browser to access Internet, buddyspy may not work.

satish January 9, 2009

You can try this site http://yahooinvisiblecheck.com/

Aditya March 15, 2009

cool post thanks for that. It’s really east way to find if some is invisible.

Gautam March 17, 2009

The other websites use the Yahoo servers.. they have a link to yahoo and when the feed the yahoo id in the link and navigate to tht link (thru php), a number is echoed and its diff when the user is offline, online or invisible. And the site echoes the user status. 🙂

Bapun March 18, 2009

@ Bloggers : Now there are scripts available to install on your site which will catch offline messenger contacts. If you want one, google it.

mustangsally April 6, 2009

hey does anyone know if someone is “idle” if their status when looked up will list them as invisible?? cuz my friends status on IM has said idle for the last two hours but when i checked on neostatus.com to see if he was invisible or not it said he was. how can this be if he’s clearly “idle”??? plz help this is so important thanks!

Rahul Bansal April 9, 2009

@mustangsally
These tools used to check invisible status don’t work accurately all the time. So try few of them and see on what status most of the agree! 😉

About 2nd question…
Yes it is possible. On yahoo one can control visibility settings on per user and/or per group basis.
So it may happen you and neostatus see different status.

mustangsally April 7, 2009

2nd question: i can see my friend online but when i check on neostatus it shows him “invisible” he only has me on his friend list and nobody else (i know his password) so why would it be doing this? is he purposely putting invisible on for everybody else that might just know his user id so nobody will bother him but me? of course i have tried to message him and he won’t answer, he hasn’t gone “idle” yet either hmmmmmmmmmm what’s the deal i wonder???? or is he in a chat room as invisible so i won’t find him there? can u still IM in a chat room if your invisible? he now has it on his yahoo mail that when he signs on his email he automatically logs into IM does this cause any quirks that you know of? sorry for all the questions but there are some unspoken issues right now that i need to get to the bottom of. thank you in advance

ratza April 9, 2009

Marian May 21, 2009

I personally use http://www.detectinvisible.me, and I found it excellent.
Gorgeous interface, fast.

They even have a desktop application for yahoo status checking named Detect Invisible.Me.

simply great work buddy. I need to ask u 3 things.

1. I have a friend added up in my messenger. it shows him as offline, but when i checked his status from http://www.imvisible.info , it showed him to be ONLINE(not invisible), then howcome iam seeing him as offline in my friends list??

2. is there a status checking website where i can put all my friend’s id’s at once and check as to who all are online/offline/invisible. coz in other sites i have to put their id’s one-by-one…..and thts kinda time taking.

2.i have a yahoo id,it got hacked by someone and i just cannot log into tht account nemore.i tried the forgot password option but i have forgotten the secret question’s answer….
is there any way to get my password??

i will b grateful to you.

thanks
Prateek

@Prateek
Use Buddy-Spy to scan your friend list at once. I already mentioned about in the post.

mika September 7, 2009

@prateek

i can recomend .. http://www.ydetective.com

yahoostatus September 17, 2009

try me! :D! http://www.byeloo.com !thanks!by

Jensen September 19, 2009

Can the id you query tell that you wer checking their status?

yahoo status September 21, 2009

nope jensen!they will not have a clue!maybe(1% chance) …width some script they can see your ip!

Leonard September 23, 2009

My experience with http://www.ydetective.com is that it is completely unreliable.

I have seen myself as being registered as online at times when I was fast asleep.
The first time I noticed that my ID was registered as being online when I was not I thought that perhaps my account had been hacked, so I immediately changed my password, only to find myself being registered online again at a time when I was not a day later.
So, I changed my password again, from a different computer. Yet the result was the same, I was still registered as being online when I knew for sure that I had not been online.

So, you would be wise NOT to base any conclusions about someone being online or not from ydetective.com,; it’s not a reliable site.

Jensen October 10, 2009

Seems like all services have been down the last two days.

tom October 10, 2009

Yes.. all services are down… not detecting invisble users.. but detecting online users…

I tried testing with my own yahoo id… it shows offline when I was invisible…

Does anybody know the reason?

Cuong October 19, 2009

New site: http://invisible.i4guru.com
check Yahoo! ID invisible nick 100% right.
This website can show a real status of a Yahoo! ID ( online/offline and invisible ) with 99% accurate.
hope u like it.

And u can add nick wow.robot for check quickly

Somebody October 26, 2009

Okay, so how you do check yahoo mail and use messenger without people knowing? It seems there are far more resources dedicated to outing people who want to be left alone rather than allowing people to have a little privacy.

ralf March 18, 2010

Um, those people who “want to be left alone” or “have a little privacy” are the ones invading the privacy of their so called buddies by watching them while hiding and they should be outed for the faceless hypocrites they are.

If they don’t want to be seen then they should automatically forfeit the right to see and be invisiblised by a default setting.

amirhosein November 8, 2009

Use invis.ir , It’s 100% accurate , And it’s never busy. (Detect Invisible Yahoo! Messengers Users at http://www.invis.ir , No One Can Hide From You Anymore)

Hi, is there anyway or any version of yahoo messenger or program you can download to check if you are in a person’s contact list or not. I added this guy’s email (msn messenger id) onto my yahoo messenger list and would love to know if i’m in his list or not.
Thanks. Can you also tell me how to tell when he was last online on yahoo messenger?

thanks.

i don’t know who is he but he completely knows eveything about me
is there a way to know who he is or what is his ID?

Stealthyone September 8, 2010

None of these work anymore, does anyone have any solutions?

George November 4, 2010

None of these online invisibility checkers seem to work with Yahoo 10 anymore.

I have 2 ways that willwork but has the side-effect that they might know you are checking them.

#1# If the buddy you want to check is on your list, then (1) open an IM message to the person, (2) load the IM Environment under Yahoo Tools->Doodle. It will say “Waiting for your buddy to load Doodle.” (3) send a simple message, like “Hello” or “miss you, send me a message when you are online next time” (4) if they are really offline, it will continue to say “waiting for your buddy to load Doodle” forever. If they are invisible, it will clear that message when you send your message. The buddy will not need to reply to you, but he/she will see Doodle loaded in their IM window. If they are not too bright they might not know what you just did.

#2# send a file to your buddy. If they are invisible and either decline the file or close the IM window without accepting or declining, or they logoff Yahoo, you will see they declined your file transfer. If they ignore you, you won’t know, until they logoff, which might be a long time if they never log off and stay invisible a long time. You will eventually know if your out-wait them 🙂

sweetswed October 1, 2010

how can i find out if someones ignoring me on his yahoo messenger?

azhar October 18, 2010

karan November 2, 2010

hi.what do u mean by changing the ip?i cant understand.how can i do that?please explain a bit more step by step.tanx

c0n February 23, 2011

go to ur friend house and try from his computer and his connection
thats what i mean by different computer and different ip address
cuz to me it does the same , but when i use a different pc and connection it works like a charm ^_^

there was a problem while i was chatting in yahoo room someone stopped my yahoo messenger and it was not responding. And that was stopped by other chatter deliberately using virus or any other setting. can anyone help me to this problem. I also want to know that how did he do that.

masterjace March 4, 2011

they used a boot program on you they are all over the place do a search and you can find them, but if you get caught you will lose that ID’s and maybe access based on your IP.
