09 Aug 07 Who has deleted you from MSN?

Updated 05.09.2007: Minor changes to work with the new MSN protocol

My wife showed me a website the other day where you could type in your email address and password for MSN Windows Live! Messenger, and it would show you which of your contacts didn’t have you in their contact lists, either because they’d never added you, or because they’d deleted you at some point. It’s a cool idea and a good way to prune some of the contacts that you never speak to from your contact list. But I don’t really wanna give up my user / pass to some third-party site, even though they promise not to log it anywhere, and most of these sites (at least the ones I saw) tried to make some money by sending advertisements to your contacts while they were checking them, which I definitely didn’t want. So, since I already have a project that uses the MSN protocol I figured I could probably whip something up myself. (more…)
