so dont talk for free.

I know man, I didn't talk for free :P, I just wanted to let him know there is a possibility to limit the people who his son can connect to!!

and Cookie, not all children have that knowledge of computing, of course it can be disabled, you can bypass almost anything, but that COULD help sb. And besides, if his father will block who he will talk to, he must be VERY young, or that's what I thought.

And please let's stop this unuseful discussion, we are all after all trying to help this guy :D

RE: Messenger Plus! and MSN Messenger 8
You don't have to be a rocket scientist to figure out how to disable such stuff, or simply delete a file. Using Plus! or a plugin for this is as good as useless and extremely ineffective.

If you want to secure and control what your child does and who he is talking to, you need a total secured environment package on Windows, not some "simple" external program which can be disabled without any effort.

There is also no reason to believe that the child must be "very" young at all; parents can and should still be able to tell their 15 year old children what or what not to do. And even very young people know often more than enough (or expirment more than enough) to know how to disable, or simply not use, a specific addon.

Suggestion a plugin or addon for msn messenger for this is useless and extremely insecure and ineffective.
