O.P. question about the "appear offline" status
I know in MSN Messenger 7.5 you can "appear offline" but is there a way to do this and be able to still message someone? I'm told there is but no one seems to know how. I go in appear offline and I can still click on a contact and the window comes up but the typing part is greyed out. Is there a plugin or anything to get around this?

And also Stuffplug doesn't have this. It has the ability to talk to contacts you have blocked.

Offline Messaging rocks! haha... I dunno... that way a bunch of stupid people you don't want to talk to you don't talk to you. haha... But talking to blocked contacts is cool too.

Thanks for all the reply's. I couldn't get stuffplug to work. I'm thinking about Windows Live Messenger. I have Windows Live Mail and love it. But I want to know if I try the Messenger and don't like it can I revert back to Messenger 7.5?? I don't want to use it unless I can if I don't like it.
