That only works if you allow people not on your list to see your online status, so for example, it doesn't work on me

.

I agree with people who say you can do this when someone has deleted you. I just did a cleanup and most of the addresses I could delete were old ones for people who are still on my list. I don't see why they would have blocked me on their old account, but they may have deleted everyone at some point.

99% sure this is right. Messenger Plus gives you the same information but without having to go through all this.

There is no way i would put my email address and password into any site that wasn't a microsoft site,

Tbh i don't really think anyone should

Kaspersky just squeeled and said that it was a phishing site when I clicked on the "delete checker" link.

I think it's the other way round.

EDIT: I'm wrong!

Funny how The delete option is there for someone who is online. :rolleyes:

what is GAIM or rather pidgin :S what does it do?

BigglesPiP · 2 May 2008 at 19:23

or just use Pidgin.

The original theory does not work, they only have the delete option if they have not yet accepted your invitation.

Pidgin is the new name for GAIM. Its an alternative to other IM programs, works with most networks including MSN, Yahoo etc.

Gaim and Pidgin are Linux IM clients.

Not being funny but did you actually look at the site? You don't have to "log in" on it.

Yeah, it phishes for your details in the "MSN Delete Checker" section...

MSN Delete Checker - Check who has Deleted you on MSN | Blockstatus.com

Check who has deleted you on MSN Messenger.

You get the option to delete someone from that list if they have deleted you from their MSN contacts list.

I have deleted people from here who added me on msn but only spoke to me once, and have then deleted me from their contacts.

That would make sense, as people who haven't accepted you yet don't have you on their lists.

No...its basically like MSN...just its not just for hotmail..you can use your yahoo...icq etc accounts to login too...and it shows if the people have you on their msn or not..
