6.2? what are you on about sorry....

if its about block checkers they dont work, it was because of a security hole that was fixed.....

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....

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

suppose you can see it that way, but even if people dont have msgplus MSN dont let em see what status their blocked contact is....

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?

nice to know these things lol not hurting anyone to show it though is it

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

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:

---

MENUITEM "&Delete Contact", 40043, GRAYED

---

paste the following line:

code:

---

MENUITEM "&Properties",  40041

---

Then Compile Script and save
