RE: Connect Directly Option, Does It Reveal IP?
It never went away...Connections over Messenger are always IP2IP. Not really a security threat, I mean when you posted this your IP address was logged. Your IP address is logged on nearly every website you visit...and very few hackers\crackers will care to target you...Although software firewalls can be disabled remotely with ease if you know how, they do protect against the bulk of attacks\pre-attack probes...so I wouldn't say this was really a problem...
