Adium, Fire, iChat, and I think AIM for Mac all use red for away. Not sure about Yahoo for Mac.

Adium, Fire, and iChat also used a dull grey (both the status icon, and the contact name) for disconnected. (and, again, I'm pretty sure that's what Yahoo uses; AIM does something kind of different)

That's pretty much the model I'm used to.
