Easy peasy!  :)

Towards the top left-hand corner of your Yahoo! mail window (might be
on all the Yahoo! windows but I'm in my mailbox now), right next to
where it says "Hi, tonks_op," will be a little dot (probably orange
for available since that's the default) and a word (either Available,
Busy, or Invisible).  Next to that word will be a tiny little
triangle.  Click on that, and you'll get a drop down menu where you'll
be able to select "Sign out of chat" (4th option down).  That'll won't
turn off the function, but it will turn off IM, which is effectively
the same thing.  :)

I can also provide screenshots if you want them.

Good luck!
