You cannot mute group IMs yet, but it's an extremely popular feature request that we've been tracking, and which we want to add in the future.
 
Some historical context: When we raised the maximum number of groups you can belong to from 15 to 25, it also created more group chat, and we know how frustrating it is to not have better control over what you see in your chat overlay (the usually-transparent display near the lower-left).
 
However, there is a workaround; while it's not the most convenient, it may help:
 
* Select '''Edit &gt; Preferences &gt; Communications''' and deselect the '''Include IM in Chat History''' checkbox.
* Then, on your toolbar with your chat bar open (click '''Chat''' at the bottom of the Second Life window if it isn't), click '''History''' to show the Chat History window.
 
Note that this won't stop the group tabs in your IM window from flashing when new messages are received; it just hides all IMs, individual or group, from showing in your Chat History.
