block fileshareing by hasan80 on 08-15-2004 at 11:52 AM

is there a plug-in for blocking the bulit-in fileshareing function?. I don't want to block it completely but just for my little sisters account. because she gets allot of crap and I want to make sure she can send and receive files over msn msg

can someone help me??

I don't think it's a real answer (I don't really understand your question) but why don't you close the firewal ports for MSN Messenger filesharing

You can still share without having ports open it is just slower
I think it would be a great idea to have a "parental control" plugin

sorry for not making myself clear enough.

I want to block the file sharing thing on my little sisters msn account, but not on mine.

isn't there some kind of filter or something??
like block file sharing on account XXXX@msn.com or block all *.exe *cab etc something like that??

i was trying to do this with messenger milk

i tryed doing it by blocking the ports, which forces messenger to error :D and it acts like there is a firewall in place (which there was, kinda)
