Yeah. When I want to be invisible, I want to be COMPLETELY invisible. That doesn’t work for all IMs though…
At the moment I am using Pidgin - a great way to communicate. But still it is possible with other clients or even online status checkers to see my invisible status.
Isn’t there some kind of plugin to solve this? Darn, otherwise this function really SUCKS. ^^

You didn’t specify which network you’re talking about.
For MSN I find “KMess” (packman repository I think) to be a nice program, and I just checked if I show up as offline when I’m invisible with MSN messenger block checker and I am.
It’s a KDE4 application, so if you’re using Gnome and want a better matching program, you might want to try eMesene instead.
Or just try aMSN which seems to be the most feature rich.
For other networks such as ICQ… no idea 
Whoa… absolutely right. Network is ICQ (never EVER use that one as standalone!), running through Pidgin. The invisible mode doesn’t seem to work. What I want to accomplish is to be TRULY invisble (without being offline).
