Safety Windows Live Messenger

To make sure that your Windows Live Messenger (a.k.a. MSN) is safe enough, normally we will apply the followings:

1). Go to Tools -> Options



2). Go to 'Security', make sure the checkboxes are checked and un-checked accordingly.

3). NEVER open any internet link within the instant messenger or email.

The following are the common words that will be used by those instant messenger spammers or email spammers:

a). Click here to see my pictures.

b). Click here to see who delete you from their msn.

c). I just update my profile, please come and see.

d). I just uploaded some of my recent photos, please come and see.

Prevent is always better than cure.
