How to See If Someone Is Blocking You on Yahoo Messenger
A popular competitor to AIM, MSN Messenger and Facebook Chat, the Yahoo Messenger allows you to send messages to friends and family online. Similar to the classic AOL concept of creating screen names and sending short typed messages, Yahoo Messenger also allows you to block others from chatting with you or knowing that you are online. This also means that you can be blocked yourself, but there are ways of finding out if someone is blocking you.
