RE: Can't make a clean shortcut to "online" status
Alright alright, no problem, I can wait until you edit your post above like "Yeah, indeed :)" after trying what I am saying. Key word: Try it!

(*)Offtopic: CookieRevised, don't get me wrong on this please, because I know you say "this script will not remember personalized statuses and any script can't  remember a temporary personalized status" But you may haven't noticed that this script helps Messenger Plus! to keep a personalized status on memory until Messenger exits because this script prevents Messenger to turn to the default signin status in case of a disconnection, which is really great, you may consider modifying the explanation about the personalized status on the script's page on the database ;) (of course if you didn't notice this hidden feature before)
That script will NOT remember a personalised status. It also will NOT "help Messenger Plus! to keep a personalized status on memory until Messenger exits". There is no "hidden" feature in it and no description should be changed in any way.

Thank you for the explanation. I didn't know those things.

Key word: not!...

Have you tried it without this script? You'll see that Plus! will keep your pers. status when you reconnect after a disconnection, no matter what default status you had saved. This script isn't needed for that. The same for when you change your status to the previous pers. status before signing in. Hence there is no "hidden" feature, Plus! already does it. The script will ONLY set the signin status to the last used status in Messenger.
But I have tried it about ten times, with the script and then without the script. And all of my tests were supporting me, too bad for me. But after I read your explanations, I tried many times and those times, always my statements have failed and yours has won. Did you do something to my computer :P

However let me say why I knew all of these things wrong. Because of arch's post:

And I believed he is correct and I wrote my above reply according to his sayings.

1) Pers. statusses are not removed when you disconnect, no matter if you use 'Remember Status'.
again :@@arch

OK.

I think this sentence does still make sense :P If he disables it while a tag is already saved at the server, then even if he removes the tag from this computer, other computers will retrieve that name from the server with that tag again. I hope this is correct this time.
