O.P. suggestion, improve auto accept options
Hey I just thought that maybe instead of having grouped sets of object for the auto accepter maybe have all the options seperate in a check box format so you can chose the different functions you want to automate.

I suddenly thought of it knowing that cam can only auto accept either with everything or with games, but I don't want games at all and I want to know what files I'm accepting.

Maybe you could also add a request blocker to the options in this too to block the things you don't want to ever get, like in my case, games.

Yeah I agree with you there. You should have the option of selecting what you want to auto accept, like webcam, games, files, video call, etc.

Maybe it would be too confusing but why not have a wizard to define several accept options for contacts and activities, just like Event Notifications.

Nah it wouldn't be confusing.. What's confusing about a list and 2 check boxes at the side of each, one for auto accept, one for block and one for manual accept.
I'll make a BASIC pic of what I mean later.

Yeah, i was thinking of requesting this myself. I think you should be able to exclude and include filetypes.

So dissallow auto except for .exe but you will be asked instead of ingoring it totally.

If you get what i mean...

Ok I know this isn't the best ever but here it is, Auto would auto accept, Chose would mean you decide and Block will decline automatically.

Choose*

But i think you should be able to add your own file to block as well.

Well I didn't have much space to do it and my graphic programs are really limited on text sizes..
anyways i guess at the end of the file list could be a box saying "Advanced" where you can have a list of what main file types to allow through..
Of course it'll only list the universal ones used in ALL computers such as JPG, EXE, GEM, GIF, for WLpM the PLSC. it could go down in a list with 2 check boxes at the side for allow and block. I'll have to start making pictures eventually for that too :P

Ok another basic picture, and I KNOW that lots of file types are missing but I didn't wanna waste major time on a basic preview picture to what may or may not happen and making it look perfectly like what it could be. Here it is I hope it puts more supporters into the idea so it may eventually be made.

The blue lettering on Advanced would probably be a clickable area, I don't know yet maybe they can have that and use the check box to chose weather to activate the advanced options or not.

[EDIT]:
There could also be a third button to extend the list next to OK and Cancel where you can type in your own file types to add to the list.
This would open a new box with a typing box saying enter file type here:, a text box to put it in and OK next to it, with Cancel under it. this would add a new file type to the list for you to allow/block
