Why do I get off-line messages from people not in my "friend list" (Mac OS X)?

Hi there. Every morning when I fire up Yahoo! Messenger (for Mac OS X, version 2.5.3) I have multiple message windows from people not in my friend list. They are spam messages, usually with links to various web sites, etc. In my Preferences, under "Messages," I have "Accept web instant messages only from my friends" checked, which I thought would have prevented this behavior. I realize that the Windows version of Messenger probably gets a lot more programming attention than the Mac version, but I figured it couldn't hurt to ask. Thanks in advance.
