Question about fully Delete & Block MSN Live Messenger

Hi Jonathan,

I hope you will be able to read this thread. I have question about fully
delete & Block MSN Live Messenger. I read your previously post. You
said...

<<If someone has you on their main contact list, that Delete option
won't be available. Once
they've removed you, it will become available and you should be able to
remove them
completely. They shouldn't be coming back...>>

My question is that I've deleted this contact name from my blocked list.
The contact name is no longer in my blocked list. So will this person be
able to re-add me to her MSN Live Messenger as a new contact since her
name is no longer in my blocked list? I hope I didn't confuse you with
my question. Thank you for your time.

Sesame

Greetings Sesame,

Yep, if they're not in the allow or blocked list, then they can just go ahead and re-add you
and you'll get the standard "Contact has added you" window when they do.

Hi Jonathan,

Thank you so much for your fast reply.

So that means if I don't want this person to re-contact me nor re-add me
again. I'll need to add her back to my contact list, then do a delete
and block her again? If so, when I add her back to my contact list.
Will she be notify by msn that I'm adding her in my contact list?

Thank you very much again!

Sincerely,
Sesame

Hi Sesame,

I'm afraid the answer to your question is maybe.

If you go ahead and re-add her to your contact list, block her and then delete her from your
contact list, and she's not online, she shouldn't receive a notification.

If she is online when you do this, then she should.

Also, this assumes everything is working correctly. Messenger add/remove contacts hasn't
been unreliable these past 8 months or so, so there really is no guarantee. Also with that
said, there is a small possibly you might still be on her allow or block list, in which case
she also wouldn't get the notification, even if she is online.

If you want my advice, I would just wait to see if she re-adds you, in which case, you can
just block her immediately from the "contact has added you" prompt. But if you really want
to go ahead, at least do it when you know she'll be asleep (which I suspect you probably are
more than aware of).

Hi Jonathan

Thank you for your kind detailed reply.

Now I understand why you said "may be". :
As I've deleted the blocked ID names from my blocked list on day 1
However, the blocked ID names have all appeared back on my blocked lis
when I signed on the next day

After reading your information
I think it's better for me just leave all those blocked ID along in m
blocked list instead of trying to delete them
That way, at least I know I'll never hear from them again unless the
sign up with another new hotmail account.

Thank you Jonathan
You're so kind. :

Have a great day

Sesam

***ok so then am I to understand that when they invite you to join their
network and you click ignore and then block this person that they will not be
able to add you again or see your profile? If this is not true how do I do
that. My ex0husbands new girlfirend keeps adding me and I keep deleting ehr
but so how she si seeing my status still. I have now blocked her through msn
hotmail not windows messenger as I never did accept her last request it just
sat idle.
