&lt;p&gt;In this group policy people can provide the custom state url. It's more easy and less tricky. Btw, it seems the Microsoft documentation appears to be incorrect. The gray text block on Page 21 is missing &amp;quot;Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00&amp;quot;. After trying to merge the reg file I found out this piece of text was missing. Based on that I wanted to find another way to apply the custom presence states.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>re: Custom presence states in Office Communicator</title><link>http://blogs.technet.com/ewan/archive/2007/09/27/custom-presence-states-in-office-communicator.aspx#2099670</link><pubDate>Wed, 03 Oct 2007 13:28:08 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">d5e57398-b9ef-4490-9955-07cbb4e4a80d:2099670</guid><dc:creator>Ewan</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Thanks for teh comment, Snaap - I've fed this back to the people responsible for the comment (that and the screen shot error on the same page).&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;•	Custom states can be configured with: Available, Busy, and Do Not Disturb.&lt;/p&gt;

Sometimes a picture helps, so check this out:&lt;/p&gt;
