Re: Cannot delete blocked contacts



Jonathan,

You can do the same thing by right clicking on the contact and selecting
delete. The menu that appears gives you the option of blocking the contact
and deleting him/her from hotmail contact list. But this doesn't delete the
contact. He/she is still available in the list of contacts that have your
email details. Simply by looking in tools>options>privacy>view your contatc
will still be visible.

Greetings,

Is this a Hotmail account that you're logging into Messenger with? If so,
you can go into Hotmail and then to the Contacts tab and delete the
contact there.
