I use this in msn and wanted to do the same with yahoo?

if u r using yahoo messenger 7

goto Messenger >>> Preferences >>> yahoo music >>> "When i m listening to yahoo music, change my status to show:"

there are 3 options ....

if u have "Do not change my Status..." u will not have ur status changed while u play a song

hope this helps ....

Most of my friends play the mp3's and I can see which music files they r playing. And its not the Lauchcast thing......

did you even try those plugins dood
all you have to do is get any of those plugins
install any of them
they get installed for winamp
enable them in winamp as instructed by the specific plugin
start your Yahoo messenger
start your winamp
play some tracks on your winamp and if youve
properly configured it it would change your yahoo status as per the song you play

Topic split cause the other one was going off topic

well achako tell me what plugin you have downloaded
anyways just look up your winamp prefrences
go this way
right click on winamp>>>>options>>>prefrences>>>Plugins>>>>General purpose>>> look out for any plugin that contains the name yahoo
select it click at "configure selected plugin"
and check up if its enabled or not
if you still dont get it post here again
