Open up Windows Live Messenger, select Tools from the menubar, then Options. When the window is opened, choose the Privacy tab.

There's a window there which lists those.

It if also possible to right-click a contact, go down to the Messenger Plus! submenu and select "Contact information".

I believe Nitro's first suggestion will do that for you (show you the Reverse List):

I believe so, there are people in that list which are no longer in my Contact List.

To check it from the window Nitro suggested, you must click on each contact and see if "Add to my list" is active. If it is active, then that means s/he is not in your list. However to right click everyone on that list is a bit hard.

No, if he wants to see the contacts who he doesn't have but they have him, then he cannot find those contacts in his contact list to right click.

So I think the best solution is Contact List Clean-up window of Messenger Plus! Live 4.50. You must have that program installed because you posted this question in Messenger Plus! forums. Open Contact List Clean-up window, select "Show contacts who have you". Then click on "In list" title and make the contacts to be sorted with that criteria. so you can bring together all of contacts who you don't have but they have you.
