Cool MSN Messenger blocking a user
Hi
Just a quick ques, if in MSN messenger I rightclick a user and click "Block" will the user still be able to see if I am online or will it just block there messages?

Cheers

You can't see them online nor can they see you, when you block them

If you delete/remove a contact and block them when you do that then this is true

Don't forget also that Msn Messenger users have the abiliity to see who's blocking them (though I don't remember how, where the option is, that is)

MSN users don't have the option to see who's blocking them, if you know how to use the MSN protocol then you can see who's blocking you, however checking this (too) frequently will lead to your account being temporarily or possibly even permenantly disabled.

There are some scripts out there which check for you, but I'm not going to link them because I see no point, if someone is blocking you, they're doing it for a reason.

I was just stating a fact, not urging people to find and use it; of course, if someone's blocking you, there's a reason for this.
No offence meant
