Why is my twitter updates showing on my Yahoo Messenger when they are not linked together?

keiCh: Why is my twitter updates showing on my Yahoo Messenger when they are not linked together?
I already checked Yahoo Messenger and it’s showing that Twitter is not linked to my Yahoo Messenger but it still showing all my updates from twitter. I want my twitter updates to stay with my twitter followers. And I don’t recall linking them in the first place. Help please.

It may be that you are connected to Twitter through your Pulse page.

Here is how to stop these updates:

TO STOP YOUR OWN UPDATES APPEARING:

Click on “Messenger” in the top left hand corner of the Messenger Pane.

Click on “Manage Updates I Broadcast”.

This will take you to your Profile page. (Now called Pulse).

UNTICK the box “Share my Updates”.

Click on “Save” at the bottom of the page.

You can also choose which Updates you want to share from your Pulse page. To do this, click on the “Settings” tab. Then click on “Manage Updates” under “Updates”. If you want to share some of them, TICK the box “Share my Updates”. Choose the ones you want to share and then click on “Save” at the bottom of the page.

Please note that these updates sometimes take a couple of days to clear.
