How to Tell If Someone Deleted You from Their Windows MSN Live Messenger

MSN Messenger Live has a lot of different names. It doesn't matter if you are using Windows Live Messenger, MSN Live Messenger, Windows MSN Live Messenger, or just MSN Messenger as this article covers all of the above versions.

If you use any of these versions, even the oldest version, there is a very easy and useful way to tell who of your friends has deleted you off their live messenger account. You may be asking yourself if you don't use any of these, why would a person want to know who deleted them or not? Easy, many people are curious as to why they haven't heard from a person in ages, if their account was closed or taken over, or just simple curiosity.

Many prefer to use online source tools that you enter your personal password and username into, that will email you a listing or provide on the following page a list of users who deleted you from their MSN messenger. The problem with online sources is spam. The spam that has been sent from these online tools is sent directly to the users email accounts or messaged directly to them through your windows live MSN messenger username. Some even change the information on your MSN Messenger when it signs on to check, to the name of the company you are using and a link. So, when that online company signs on, all your friends can see the spam notification popup alert window, not whatever name you had it set as before. You also risk someone else gaining access to your account, simply because the site may claim it doesn't save your information doesn't mean it doesn't.

There is a safer easier way to defend against such things happening to your MSN Windows Live account though. To tell if someone has deleted you on Windows MSN Live Messenger, when your list is up and you can see your friends, go to Tools, then options, privacy tab. Under Windows Live Messenger Privacy tab you will see a button with the word "view", click on that "View" button. A new popup window will come up that says: "Who has you in their contact list?" Under that it reads: "The following people have added you to their contact list:" Anyone who has deleted you will not be listed. Click "Close" and "Ok" when finished.

This article was inspired by a 10 clout writer here at associated content, Lee451h who checked his Windows Live MSN Messenger, and alerted my sister in law to the fact that he's still stalking her, even after 7 years of never being added to her MSN Messenger account. Thanks Lee Andrew Henderson for the inspiration!
