    Default msn messenger "appear offline" function

    Hi. Im not sure if it exists or if anyone even wants to answer it but i was wondering if there is a way, maybe an add on program to msn messenger (version not specified) that lets you see everyone who is on appear offline, or to see if anyone is blocking you, and before you ask, yes there is definetly something i need to know.

    I'd appreciate some comments or suggestions.

    Yes, MSN let's you know the first thing, but not if anyone is blocking you though.

    im sure msn doesnt just "let you know" if someone on your contact list is appearing as offline, because then not a single person would use it. but if it does, then tell me HOW i can make it tell me.

    If you could do that, there would be no point in putting yourself as "appear offline."

    The closest you can do is check for the people on your list who deleted you (http://www.msngeeks.com/index.php?page=deletechecker), or check if one specific address blocked you (http://www.msngeeks.com/index.php?page=blockchecker).

    Edit: erh, both those links only take you to the main page but that's okay, you can use all thst stuff, it's good.

    thanks heartshot. yes your right there would be no point, but using me as an example, not exactly everyone KNOWS that there is such a function (which i guess there isnt but thats not the point)

    If they're online, I don't think they have you blocked.

    Doesn't NG Stuff-Plug do that? Allow you to see who's opened conversation windows with you even if they haven't typed anything, let's you see who's closed your windows. I'm pretty sure it let's you know who's blocked you too? or is that for who's deleted you.
    I'll figure it out later...
