How Do You Notice if Someone Has Blocked You on MSN 2010

There are many websites that claim to be able to confirm if a contact on your list has blocked you or not. These so-called block checkers do this by detecting the public status of the user who has unchecked the option â€oeOnly people on my Allow List can see my status and send me messages†under his Privacy settings.

Somehow, Microsoft has with time improved its privacy policies towards MSN Messenger users and automatically checks this option upon registration. Hence, it is today impossible to technically know for sure if someone with a constant offline status has blocked you. Furthermore, some block checkers online can be more of a trouble than a solution to your problem. As these websites request you to enter your email address to list the contacts that have apparently blocked you, they can use your ID to either try to decrypt your password or to send you spams.

Some simple ways that I can suggest to try to know if a contact has blocked you is to ask a common contact if he/she has recently seen this user online. Also, you can try to check the availability of there MSN spaces (if they have one). And the last but most useful solution will be to contact them directly.
