Sending/Recieving Files by BabeeGurl666 on 05-15-2005 at 03:35 AM

I'm not sure if there was a post about this already or not, but everytime someone tries to send me a file, or I try to send someone else a file, it says "This file has been blocked because it is potentially unsafe." I'm not sure why though, I set my Norton Antivirus to allow Messenger to accept files, and I've also set Messenger to auto accept files. I can't accept anything in MSN Messenger...

here is a post by sunshine, with links to pograms you can use to unblock the "file transfer block" feature in msn.

You may also want to get them to upgrade to the latest Messenger (7.0.0813), as this has a much-improved file transfer blocking implementation, which won't block perfectly fine filetypes such as MP3.
