    I used to use MSN messenger years and years ago.
    I uninstalled it ages ago.
    Earlier however, I was contacted by someone I didnt want to hear from again. I was wondering how, and I realised its a mini messenger popping up ..thing is, they keep writing to me now and its unwanted contact.
    I tried to block them but couldnt find to block option.
    I deleted the contact, thinking that was grand.
    Then, they still kept messenging...

    Really need this sorted. Thoughts?

    Thanks a mil and sorry if im in the wrong forum!:o

    are you on about in hotmail where the mini msn like facebook has pops up?

    if so up the top of the screen where it says messenger you can click on that and the option to sign out is on the pop down bar

    apparently the way it works now in windows live messenger, you cannot block people the way you used be able to do, you can only choose to appear offline to that individual, be aware too that if you delete them, they will again be able to see your online status! crazy, i know, i've long since moved over to skype though, although that too is soon to come under the microsoft umbrella, but hopefully they'll leave it as it is.
