+
+7.4 How do I use invisibility?
+
+ Jabber invisibility support is available in Gaim version 0.60 and later.
+
+ There are two ways to use Jabber invisibility: on a per-buddy and on a
+ per-server basis.
+
+ To use per-buddy invisibility: right-click on the buddy on the Online
+ buddy list and select "Temporarily Hide From." You will appear to that
+ buddy to be off-line. To make yourself seen by that buddy again:
+ right-click on the buddy and select "Un-hide From." Note that the menu
+ changes based on whether you're currently invisible to that buddy or
+ not.
+
+ The "Temporarily" part is a dead give-away. Your invisibility to
+ that buddy will last only until the next time you log on or until
+ you set server invisibility (discussed next) on and off.
+
+ To use per-server invisibility: click "Tools -> Away," select the Jabber
+ server login for the server upon which you wish to become invisible (if
+ necessary) and select "Invisible." To become visible again: select
+ anything else from that same menu (such as "Online"), or set your away
+ status or log off the server and back on again.
+
+ You can set yourself invisible per-server and subsequently make yourself
+ visible to selected buddies only.
+
+ Gaim currently does not retain invisibility settings between logins,
+ just as it doesn't currently retain "away" status.
+
+
+7.5 I've a buddy that I keep removing from my buddy list but the entry
+ keeps coming back every time I log in again! How can I stop this?
+
+ As of Gaim version 0.59 and later: Select the Edit Buddies tab, right-
+ click on the offending entry, and select "Remove From Roster."
+
+
+7.6 Can I remove a buddy from my Jabber roster entirely?
+
+ As of Gaim version 0.59 and later: yes. In the Edit Buddies tab, right-
+ click on a buddy and Select "Remove From Roster."
+
+ The buddy will disappear from your buddy list and also will no longer
+ receive presence notifications from you.
+
+
+7.7 What does "Cancel Presence Notification" do?
+
+ This selection, available in Gaim version 0.60 and later, and found by
+ right-clicking on a buddy entry in the Edit Buddies tab, prevents that
+ Jabber I.D. from receiving future presence notifications when you log on
+ to the server.
+
+ After you do this, that buddy will have to re-request a subscription to
+ your presence (and you will have to approve it) for them to again see you
+ on-line.
