and also, is there a folder on my computer that msn creates where it stores my custom emoticons? i would love to do a back-up of them

P.S. i use MSN 7.0 but thinking of upgrading to 8.0 soon if i can do a back-up of my emoticons

Thanks,
Anna

Greetings Anna,

If you right-click the contacts in that Blocked list in the Privacy Options there's a Delete
option there. However, this option will only be available if the contact has deleted you
from their main contact list. If they haven't, the Delete option will be grayed out and you
won't be able to remove them.

There's a tool for doing this, called MSN Backup, which you can find here:

PLEASE CAN YOU GIVE PEOPLE AN OPTION TO DELETE PEOPLE WHOM THEY DO NOT WANT TO HAVE IN THEIR PRIVACY FOLDER. EVEN IF THESE PEOPLE ARE BLOCKED, THEY STILL BOTHER ME... THIS IS BAD AND PEOPLE ARE DELETING THEIR ACCOUNT BECAUSE OF IT...

ANY ADVICE? I HAVE SOME SERIOUS ISSUES WITH A PERSON IN MY LIST, AND IF IT IS NOT DELETED, I WILL END UP TERMINATING MY ACCOUNT AS WELL AND ADVISING OTHER PEOPLE TO DO SO...

Isn't it enough to go to TOOLS/OPTIONS/PRIVACY and move the person in
question to the BLOCK list? If that isn't enough, set-up another Internet
Passport and add your contacts except for the one that you don't want and
use only the new account. Send a message to everyone in your list but not to
the person that you want to sever ties with notifying them of your change.
