    Has anyone else noticed this? If you try sending any link on Live Messenger, they block it. Even if it's www.live.com
    :confused:

    You should use encryption.. Simplite msn encryption.
    Uses commericial graded encyption with PGP keys, and encrypts the conversation
    Requires both parties (You and the person your talking too) to have it installed and both of you trade public PGP keys, then from there you will have private conversations free from censorship as when its sent threw the msn server they can do nothing becuase its encrypted.

    Yep, it's REALLY annoying. I think this is a desperate attempt by Microsoft to stop spam bots that auto send out links to steal accounts or put virus's on peoples PC.
