Contacts-Newbe Question

[Tom]

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.messenger (More info?)

I just had a session with someone who asked me questions
about people in my contact list.
I was surprised that someone else can view my contact
list.
Is there a way I can make my contact list private, or is
this just the way it works?


TIA

Greetings Tom,

No one can see your contact list but you (and whomever else can see your screen).
