Hi Parham, I thought the same thing, but apparently my friend is doing this. However, I haven't had the chance to question her more on exactly what she is seeing on the screen. I should clarify, that she is not vision impaired, so is able to manipulate the mouse etc. I have since chatting to my friend on msn, heard from other people, that this can be done using yahoo. However, they are not using it themselves, so again, could not explain to me how this feature works. It might be the case, that you can choose to see only your own local area. I look forward to hearing if any other list members know anything about this feature. thanks Jason ----- Original Message ----- From: "Parham" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Sunday, July 27, 2008 10:37 PM Subject: Re: [Blind-Computing] how to see people online when they are notinyour contacts for MSN messenger
