What it does: This modification displays your AIM/ICQ/MSN/Yahoo Online Status in the postbit_legacy or postbit templates, as well as the member info page, using an icon. Uploading the modification will add a new setting category called IM Online Status, where you can choose the server you use to display a users IM Online Status.

A few notes about custom icons... I have found through testing that using custom icons on your web server can make the online status icons load a lot faster. I suggest you download the icons from whichever online status server you use, and upload them to your forum directory (I put mine in images/icons). This is not necessary, just a little tip.
Please Please Please remember that even tough this hack is stable, things can still go wrong. I cannot and will not be held responsible for anything this hack may do to your forum or theme. As always, I recommend that you backup your database before applying this hack. Also please note that I reserve the right to remove this mod at any time.
LOL I installed it on 3.6.4 and I can not seem to get it to run properly I do not see any options you have listed as far as users being able to set their status.

Should I unistall this?
Yes, as this version does not run on vBulletin 3.6. The 3.6 version would have been released by now, except there's a pretty tricky bug I'm trying to work out. I'm hoping I can release it Friday or Saturday.
