windows can't be opened on appear offline mode, so he has either blocked you, either you're having network problems and you didn't see his status change.

so where does all this fit in with block checking? can we or I, tell a person who asks that “block checking” is possible? or no?
don't, you can't rely on that, because seriously, who opens a conversation with someone you have blocked? ¬¬

the only difference is that stuffplug stops msn messenger from closing the windows straight after opening it.

Afaik, when you block someone and open a window, there's a boolean that tells if you're blocking the person or not (thus, it allows or not you to talk to them). StuffPlug puts the value so that it's not true for YOUR client that you're blocking them. This will start a session with the person you opened the conversation (alerting their client, even if you appear offline to them).
i think it stops the controls from being disabled and the window from being closed
stuffplug or not, the conversation is still opened

It could also happen if the client requests a display picture, as this opens a conversation.
that is why the open convo notifier has been classed as "unreliable" i think =/
