"Away" status automatically changes?? by smile12 on 07-17-2006 at 09:06 PM

Hi,
  I changed my status to away.  I left home around 10:15am.  Anyway, around 12:00 (two hours later, I was still out) I got a call from someone asking why I was ignoring their IM's.  I said I am not home.  They told me that their computer said that I HAD JUST SIGNED in when I was not even home, and I thought my statuswas set to "away."

  Has this happened to anyone else?  Please help.

You could have lost connection with the server. MSN/WLM would usually keep trying to sign you back in after that, so therefore it would show others that you are signing in.
