If a contact is highlighted in your Contact List it means their computer is online and Yahoo Messenger is open.
The default 'Idle' time is 15minutes and adjustable or it can be switched off

It may say they are available, but not necessarily on Messenger. They could just be doing things on the computer and that makes them appear as available since they are doing something on the computer at the moment. They can choose how long it says available before switching to idle (I THINK.)

it depends on what settings they have on their system to set them to idle in a set amount of time. that is an adjustment in the preferences for yahoo messenger
