Ok I may have fixed my problem with this. Despite blocking the contact then removing from my phone version of MSN, I don't think it actually removed the name from my list of contacts.

The feature of blocking contacts under Windows Live Messenger has now been redesigned with the introduction of Windows Live Messenger 2011. The feature used to be available at Messenger Options > Privacy and is now available at http://contacts.live.com
In order to delete and block contacts follow the instructions below:
a. Visit http://contacts.live.com, then login using the Email Address and Password you use to access Windows Live Messenger
b. On the left pane of the Contacts page, under All Contacts, click on Messenger
c. Search for the contact you would like to delete and block
d. Once you have found the contact you would like to block click the contact name
This will take you to the contact details menu. Under this section:
e. Click Manage and then select the option Remove as a friend
By doing this you have just blocked a contact from Messenger. In order to have the contact deleted from your contacts list:
f. Hover the pointer over Messenger on the very top of the page and select the option Contacts
g. Check the box next the contact you want to delete and then press Delete button on the menu bar just above
I tried the above and found that the e-mail of the bot account was still in my list of contacts, so currently I have deleted the name and for the last 10 minutes nothing has been heard of from the bot.
Hope it helps.
[EDIT]
None of this worked. It doesn't seem possible to get rid of at all. MSN has well and truly become shite over the years.

Crap no it didn't.
