FAQ - Instant Messages: See Others without being Seen

Click your name at the top of the main window, and then click Appear Offline.

You'll appear to other users to be offline, and they won't be able to communicate with you. In actuality, you'll be signed in and able to see which contacts on your list are online. Although you can see your contacts' online status, you cannot send them instant messages, have voice conversations, or page them.
