ResHacked Messengers say 'Idle', which is a separate status to Away.

O.P. RE: change status on workstation lock (NT/2000/XP)

I just found out that it's Messenger's "set my status to idle when I'm inactive for x minutes" (my MSN is dutch so it could be a little different) setting which makes the difference between changing the status or not when you lock your OS. I always disable it... and it doesn't let me choose which status it is set to...

OK, here's a question then... is there some way to disable the "away" status message whenever you lock your workstation?
