Live Messenger contact cards & Live Skydrive.

I uploaded about 4 word documents to a folder and set the permissions to just
me. I noticed in my contact card that I could see these documents only and
can download them which is fine.

My question is can my Messenger contacts see my documents I've uploaded if
they look at my contact info or contact card?

Greetings Mike,

They sure will.

Even if I just set the permissions to myself in Skydrive? There's no way to
change in that. I really don't want to set up another account for personal
storage.

I may have sent this post twice if I have I'm sorry but as long as files are
stored in the folders marked Personal Folders - Folders just for you with the
locks on the Messenger Contacts shouldn't be able to see them in the Contact
cards?

Hi Mike,

Yep, it observes permissions. Although you'll see all your files in your own contact card,
others don't.

So just to verify one more time I can put upload documents and permissions
set to me only (the locked folders) and they other messenger contacts won't
see them? They will just see the shared documents that I set for them?

Hi Mike,

Well it only shows the public ones. If you set up a specific folder for certain people, they
won't see it on the contact card (even if they have permissions to see it).
