 This is NOT a copy of ticket #466, that one speaks only of a single issue
 with invisibility.

 The whole ICQ invisibility settings for pigdin are wrong.

 Pigdin differs people to "blocked" and "unblocked", but this is not enough
 for icq. When someone in icq protocol is "unblocked", he sees you
 invisible (which is best option to be in while staying in this defect)

 But ICQ differs people to 3 kind of users

 "regular users"- users that see you when you are online, don't see you
 when you are invisible

 "always visible to users"-users that see you when you are online AND when
 you are invisible ...this is equivalent of "unblocked" in pigdin

 "always invisible to users"- users who don't see you neither when you are
 just offline, NOR when you are invisible ..this is i guess equivalent of
 "blocked" in pigdin

 pigdin simply does not have normal users group. people who would see you
 when you are visible and don't see you when you are invisible. you have to
 MANUALLY remove "Blocked" icon from every user when you want to be
 normally visible to rest of the users
