sorry....if its about block checkers they dont work, it was because of a security hole that was fixed.....
RE: contact list question by mwe99 on 04-30-2005 at 06:23 PM
You should be able to click block and notice their status, you block them from contacting you, not from seeing them online.
As long as their in your contact list you can see their status.

yes i know that
i never saw that in 6.2.....but i see what he means now, hmmm, i think that should be fixed.... it says MSNUSER (blocked)
not MSNUSER (away) (blocked)
plus u cant see the symbol if they're away or busy etc coz its got the block symbol....
RE: contact list question by mwe99 on 04-30-2005 at 06:29 PM
This can be done by clicking on the contact and going to
Messenger Plus Extras > Contact Information
It tells you what time the status changed, and if you see the status has changed since you blocked it. Then they changed it

True, another way is to..
Click the contact card and hover your mouse over the name of the person (in the contact card) it then displays their status.
If you blocked someone why would you wanna know their status anyways?

lol not hurting anyone to show it though is it
RE: contact list question by mwe99 on 04-30-2005 at 06:37 PM
Well for now i suggest someone could make a plugin to show this. I can't imagine it would be too difficult to make their status appear next to blocked, but im not a programmer so
RE: contact list question by Grue on 04-30-2005 at 06:43 PM
You can add the properties option when you right click a contact if you know how to use ResHack.
Here is how:
Exit MSN Messenger, open msgslang.dll in reshacker..
Goto Menu > 208 > 1033
Under line 37 which is:
code:paste the following line:
MENUITEM "&Delete Contact", 40043, GRAYED
code:Then Compile Script and save
MENUITEM "&Properties", 40041

make ur status to appear offline then unblock the contact of which u want to see their original status... after seeing their status again make them block and change ur status to online.. well if u were doing chat with someone and dont want to close their chat window then change ur status appear offline from ur buddy chat window by typing /appearoffline other wise by changing ur status from msngr contact list u ll be ask that all of ur chat windows to be close...so change ur status from chat window if u are engaged in chat session....and dont want to close that..
try this lil trick i m sure it will work..

This thread is NOT about block checkers. He is asking if there is any way to see the statuses of people that HE blocked. There used to be a properties option in msn 6.x in which you could easily check the status of someone that you have blocked.

it has the same suspects in it and its going about the blocking system so
PS yes your richt shezi
RE: contact list question by mwe99 on 04-30-2005 at 09:23 PM
We're not talking about the blocking system! you brought the links about the blocking system. I was showing different ways to find the status of the blocked member.

What about the Plus Contact Information? It is obviously a re-think for MSN and it can't really be changed unless they do it, so e-mail them.

Yeah the contact card does only work when your sorted in groups

2) This is not a bug and isn't something "to be fixed".
3) This is not what the OP is requesting; it isn't a talk about MSN Messenger 6.2 (as he clearly said he already knew how he can see it), but about how he can see it in MSN Messenger 7
quote:again, why are you posting??? The OP already knows how he can see it in MSN Messenger 6.2.

Sorry, but why are you posting??? It is exactly these kinds of posts which frustrate people. If you don't know the correct answers, don't post. And certainly don't change subjects or talk about something the OP clearly stated he already knew... It was only after a post of 6-7 that somewhat decent answers came...
