some of us use GAIM (open source trillian replacement), but i haven't been on much recently and so i don't know if i get those on GAIM (i do use gaim for MSN chat protocol).

Gaim has no ability to send files, so I use dMSN as my MSN client in Linux.

I use gaim, and even though I blocked them, I still get the messages.  Come on M$...I'm not interested in your make spying easier upgrade, so cut it the fuck out.
Microsoft is not the answer.
Microsoft is the question.
"No" is the answer!
The nice thing about Windows is - It does not just crash, it displays a dialog box and lets you press 'OK' first.

yes i get them when i log on to msn, but MoR says they'll stop after Oct 15th. i stopped msn from autologging on till then.

i never heard of dmsn, but i used to use amsn, and their page says nothing about this issue, i was kind of hoping they would have a similar page to this about the whole issue. i like to know what's going on.
