nah, with "openconvo" you never get false notifications. like i stated in my other post, you do not get notifications when the contact opens your window while just changing their status to or signing in offline.
like m_e said the protocol session isn't open when you choose to simply appear offline.

don't, you can't rely on that, because seriously, who opens a conversation with someone you have blocked? ¬¬
it still could happen though.

exactly. though i didn't get false notifications while blocked
(when they changed their dp etc.)

i dunno. i tried this -> me and contact had no dps at all, and i still got "openconvo" notifications eachtime they opened my window after they blocked me.

it is not so hard to tell. all you have to do is notice the "open window" message while they appear offline. and i mean, openconvo can actually log the events eachtime your window has been closed or opened. you can just search for the contact you think that blocked you in the logs and see if they appeared offline at the time you got a notification.
i don't think it is unreliable, since it does show a pop-up -> everytime the window has been opened. you don't get false notifications at all. the only thing is that it is
limited, since it all depends on the contact who blocked you -> whether or not they open your convo window.
try it yourselves. with the current msn (like i said 7.0.0777 was the only version i had any problems with), and windows messenger it works everytime.
