Locking + "Has added you" dialogs by siebe on 09-27-2004 at 04:12 PM

Heyas,

I just noticed, when "locking" MSN Messenger (Plus! --> Lock Messenger) it does not hide any "Has added you" dialogs if those might appear while messenger is locked (I dont know if this also happens when you lock messenger while there is such a dialog visible).

Kind of annoying, cause people can just block/allow people and you dont know about it ;)

There wouldn't be any problems if it were possible to select "offline" as status while Messenger is locked.
Patchou, why "offline" doesn't appear there?

Wouldn't it be easier to just log out then?

When you log out your IM windows are closed.

When I'm going off the PC for a while, to watch StarTrek for example :P, I usually lock my messenger so my mom or dad can use the PC and not evesdrop on my messages. I usually leave Messenger running so everyone can still leave me messages (seeing as most peopel are either 7 hours behind me, or 7 hours in front of me it is hard to keep in touch).

I just noticed that the dialog still pops up, though. A mom or dad might just as well click "ok" or "cancel" beause they dont know what it is.. And I'll never know what happened.
