O.P. Shocked  Microsoft blocks youtube links?
Looks like Microsoft doesn't want to have users sending Youtube links.
I tried it out with a few contacts, but both sending and receiving links from the famous video site is impossible.

Anyone else noticed this?

RE: Microsoft blocks youtube links?
My previous post got moved to the T&T so I want to give my honest opinion now.

I think that Microsoft has gone power hungry. Only security threats should be blocked from spreading over the messenger network. If M$ think they can block you tube links then next links to be blocked will probably be yahoo! & google links who know where the will stop.

Maybe this is a mistake and if it is or isn't a mistake, Microsoft will hopefully rectify the situation.

If only I knew what I should put here
