    Happened to me as well.

    Muslim users (not being racist but that's always the case) send me all kinds of messages, especially in arab fonts.

    Do what Sadie said or just block them.

    for the ims you were getting, did they have links. if they did it's spam. if not, maybe you were still talked about in the chat so asking might go some way to get ur id to chat with you.

    as for the "blah blah is now Online" i get that too just about once or twice a day from ppl i don't know. i just think that's a yahoo glitch.

    In the chat room, click on your username in the little chat box, and it will display a drop-down menu where you can select "Sign out of chat".
