there is no status on msn called idle....but if u are set to away or busy , then yes u can talk to them ...its just if they are as appear offline that u cant talk to them.

No, their status is idle, and they're talking to me! Why is this happening?

People should indeed not be idle when they talk to you, my guess is that Plus! checks for idle persons once every minute or every few minutes. In that case, people will still show idle when they start talking to you, a little bit later the status will be correct.

You can change it as we all know to show Idle not Away when the person is idle so they may have accidently changed the wrong string.
