You cannot manually change your status from "Away" in Communicator 2007 when you use a portable computer to connect to a remote computer
When you use a portable computer to connect to a remote computer, you cannot manually change your status in Microsoft Office Communicator 2007. The status of Communicator 2007 appears as "Away."
This problem occurs because Communicator 2007 assumes that the remote session is locked even if the remote session is unlocked. Therefore, Communicator 2007 ignores status changes.
To resolve this problem, install the Communicator 2007 hotfix package that is dated March 28, 2008.

Community Feedback System
Very often, it takes hours to solve a problem. Very often, you've looked high
and low, and have tried a lot of solutions. When you finally found it, chances
are, it was because someone else helped you. Here's your chance to give back.
Use our community feedback tool to let others know what worked for you and what
didn't.
Please also understand that the community feedback system is not warranted to be
correct, it's simply a system that we've built to let people try and help each
other. If something in a feedback response doesn't make sense to you, or you're
not comfortable making changes that the feedback talks about (like registry
edits), please consult a professional.
Thank you for using kbAlertz.com Feedback System.
