               (sorry if nefin missin, had to get it from a log)

[04:43:46 PM] Sarah -x- : Your buddy has a new Buddy Icon. Take a
              look! http://buddies.funbuddyicons.com
              @[fwpscript]Icon:none@[/fwpscript]

is there a way to stop this? or a way for ma contact to disable 'icon:none' coz i fink its just buddy icon advertising itself. ma contacts with it have sed they dont want it there either. is there sumfing that can be changed in the registry?
