Changing Status Message in Drop Down Box

In Yahoo Messenger under "Messenger" "Change My Status" and "New Status Message" one can create their own Status Message instead of "Available", "Busy", "Stepped Out" etc. I made one as a joke, but its not very edifying and I want to get rid of it. There doesn't seem to be a way to delete it?!

Anyone know how?

IF you are comfortable editing your registry, open regedit (Start...run...regedit.exe) and go to:

hkey_current_user\software\yahoo\pager\profiles\YO UR USERNAME\Custom Msgs

All your status messages are stored there, and you can delete any you don't want.
