UPDATE: Again, the Yahoo! 360 service closed down. See http://www.yprofileblog.com/blog/2009/05/29/yahoo-... and http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/360/shutdown/ . If anything, you are probably using the Yahoo! Profiles (http://profiles.yahoo.com/ ), which was recently upgraded to include social-networking features. It's not clear how the Y!Profile relates to your question though.

The Yahoo! 360 beta service shutdown around July 13, 2009. I think you are only talking about Yahoo! Answers.
The privacy features of this service only applies to your Yahoo! Answers (Y/A) profile. Your Q&A can still be seen on the rest of the site (i.e. in the categories that you post and via search engines).
Y/A network (fans and contacts) can see your Q&A in your Y/A profile. If you want to prevent even that from happening, then you will have to refrain from having a Y/A network. Make sure the "Allow other Answers users to be my fan" option is not selected in your Y/A profile settings and don't add anyone as a Contact (or remove the Contacts that you have added).
