From what it did when I tried, the message wasn't sent. Is that what it's supposed does this do?

They may be censoring, but it's stupid, what if someone wanted to send someone a link to a download that had download.php in the url? It won't get sent because any mesage with download.php is automatically disgarded. I think this is BS

this might have been a quick hack to fix some IM virus that would send links to have itself downloaded, though the workaround is as simple as changing the file location to something less descriptive Laughing

I am betting it is built in to the msn clinet, so if u are using a non-M$ one or an older verson it probly will not work.

It all depends on who's client is blocking it. Nudges for example are limited to being SENT so you could disable the nudge protection on your client and sent infinite nudges. File protection on the other hand is blocked from being RECIEVED so if you have it disabled on your MSN you can recieve .exe's and alike. Best way of getting past sending files is just to zip it. As for the new censor protection it's probably blocked from you recieving censored words, so there isnt really a way past that, unless I'm wrong.
