CONTACT LIST CLEANUP by Seraph on 07-09-2004 at 04:20 PM
Hey, i'm new here so give me a chance 
I'm not sure if this is a problem or if its meant to happen. Remember, when I installed Plus, all my contacts had already been added.
Ok so whenever I go into the contact-list-cleanup and look at the list, its wrong...
For people that I havent talked to in months, or even talked to at all, its says:
Last online=3 days Last chat=3days
So does it only work for people that you talk to, after installing Plus or what way does it work?
Also, is it not meant to show who has blocked you and who doesnt use msn anymore?
My contact list is almost full so I kinda want this to work
Thanks for any help.

Since I installed Messenger Plus!3, 4 days ago (Corrupt registry settings for my email) Plus! starts counting from that day (as seen in the attachment)
Plus! does not tell you who has blocked you or who doesn't use MSN anymore it will only say when you last chatted with someone and when they were last online when you were.

Messenger Plus! starts counting from the day its installed.

that's exactly what matty said in a better way.

To add to this:
Plus starts counting days as soon as it is installed: Because there is no way that Plus! could know who you talked to and when before that. MSN doesn't provide this information....
Plus doesn't show you who has blocked you: Because this can't be done, even in general. Furthermore, this would be a breach of privacy. Plus! isn't a blockchecker. And even the blockcheckers that are around now, can't always tell you if someone has blocked you or not.
Plus doesn't show you who isn't on MSN anymore: Because how you gonna check that? If someone isn't on msn, he's offline. Plus! can't physicaly "see" if the person is still using msn or not. No program can do that 
So...
