So, this might not be online status at all, I'm not sure. Basically, I disabled online status in the module settings, then removed it from the server completely. Everything properly disappeared, except it is still in the user registration process when I go to settings -> users -> add user. Instant Messengers with all the preferences is still asked for.

I looked at the code and I see where the form for registration is being generated. So I dion't see how the form is still displayed when the module that generates the form isn't on the server.

I truncated the cache. Same thing.

So how is this happening? LAMP server, Drupal HEAD as of this afternoon PHP 4 MYSQL 4.1.

Thanks in advance, I like the module and will be using it in various sites.

So, I also disabled profile.module and am retaining user registration fields from it as well. Will proceed in bug hunting in that direction. Probably not online status, but will keep this open till I resolve the issue.

I tried to reconstruct this behavior on many different Systems with Linux, Windows, Apache, Apache2, PHP4, PHP5 PostgresQL and MySQL.
Until now i haven't found any Bug that could lead to this behavior.
I think you have another caching mechianism running, that causes this Error. (Zend Cache, Truck MM Cache, Internet Explorer, whatever.)

Ask your provider if they have a cache running, and clear your browser cache.

Thank you so much for looking into this. Also many apologies. I had forgotten I posted this, I found the problem - not onlinestatus at all. Our theme person - someone to whom I have never actually spoken, managed to hard-code it all into the theme - don't even ask how, it was bizarre.

Thanks again for looking into it.
