[Request] Block New Contacts by Dusty on 07-08-2005 at 02:37 AM

It would be great if you guys could make a script that would block new contacts that have added your e-mail to their list. For instance, some moron has added my e-mail to some sort of chat and i'm getting loaded with pop-ups of people adding me. I would like to get rid of the spammers somehow. :(

If you guys could consider this, I would be very grateful, thank you. :)

When a person adds you, they are blocked automatically, and they are unblocked if you accept them, and if you reject them, they stay blocked.

I meant something like an autoblocker. Didn't mean to be so general. A blocker that won't show "Add new contact" windows maybe? :$

like deny all new contacts?

The best bet is to catch all of those windows, and automatically select 'Block', uncheck the checkbox, and hit OK.

Uncheck the first box and uncheck the second box. You wont be alerted of people adding you but people will see you online.

maybe someone should make a plug-in that won't display the pop-up, but log people who added you? then you can view the log and add people you want... 8-)

Useless, because it already exists in MSN Messenger itself, aka: it is the way msn messenger works anyways... follow Matty's advice and for the list of people who added you, again look at the screenshot: "See who added you to their contact list" [VIEW]...

true, but a search filter would be handy so you don't have to look through the whole list to find one particular contact. this would be very useful for people with hundreds of contacts :S
