Re: Help about Blocking MSN Messenger

Sancho   You sure about this?   From what I've seen, MSN runs on whatever port number it feels like.  The port is different if you are in a chat room to a 1-1 chat.   If you're right tho, great!  thanks!   Andy   Mr Andrew Larkum High Speed Networks Group Dept.
