I suspect you have switched from Yahoo Classic interface to the NEW Yahoo Mail interface -

http://us.mg1.mail.yahoo.com/dc/try_mail

which includes Instant Messenger as an on-line application, as well as text messaging, and checking mail by cell-phone. There must be come way in the settings to disable this feature. Though since I use Classic, I don't know what it is.
