you might have it set to change your status to busy when you open a  full screen application (eg. a powerpoint presentation, movie, etc.)

to change it go to tools -> options -> personal -> uncheck 'show me as 'busy' and block my alerts etc.'

yeh, if you have that option checked then it changes your status to busy when you have the full screen application running, and then when you get out of it, or alt+tab into the msn window then it goes back to online
