mobile

Long-long time ago I somehow (I don't remember now) activated some MSN Messenger feature that allowed me to receive messages sent to me as an SMS while I was offline. Now when I'm signed off, people see me as if i was signed on from a mobile phone... there is mobile phone icon next to me.

I would like get rid of that. Where can I disable this feature?
