Sometimes some of your friends who appear offline in Yahoo Messenger may not be actually offline, they may in the 'Invisible' mode. This maybe if they are trying to ignore you or are too busy to talk to anyone.
There is a small trick that you can use to find out what the truth is
Firstly open your Yahoo Messenger main window and double click on the name of the person whom you want to check. The chat window will open obviously.
Click IMVironment button, select See all IMVironments, select Yahoo! Tools or Interactive Fun, and click on Doodle.
After loading the Doodle Imvironment there can be two possibilities :-
## 1. If the user is offline Doodle are will show this "waiting for your friend to load Doodle" continuously.
## 2. If the user is online (but in invisible mode), after few seconds (it can take up to one minute, depending on your connection speed), you should get a blank page. So you know that the user is online.

How to remove Windows Vista and/or Windows 7 from dual boot system having XP.
I was having my P.C. with X.P. as well Windows Vista and Beta version of Windows 7 as a dual boot.
After some days if uses I stopped using Vista and Windows 7.
Now I wished to get rid of these Operating systems as they were using a lot of space on my Hard Disk and I did not needed them any more.
Then I searched for the solution of How to remove those Operating Systems without losing my Data and even without having to re-install my X.P.?
I think many of you people also have this problem of how to remove Vista and / or Windows 7 on a dual boot system with X.P.
Here is how to do it.
1> Boot your computer in to Windows XP.
2> Ensure you have the Vista DVD in the DVD drive.
3> Go to “Start” and “Run”. Type in “d:\boot\bootsect.exe /nt52 ALL /force” (without quotes, plus replace d: with the drive letter of your Vista DVD).
4> Remove two files (Boot.BAK & Bootsect.BAK) on your XP root folder (C: ).
5> Restart the computer, and you will notice the boot selection menu is gone.
6> Format the partition/drive where you had Vista installed.
And now you have returned your computer to its previous state, without Vista and without the new bootloader.
This is this much simple.
