Check If Someone is Invisible, Offline Or Blocked You On GTalk

 


There is a great little instant messaging utility, Pidgin that helps to find who has blocked you in Google Talk. If you not sure how to configure Pidgin with Google Talk, I advice you to first visit this page.

Ok, now when you are aware of how to configure Pidgin to work with Google Talk, I’ll guide how to make smart use of Pidgin to identify who has blocked you on Google Talk.

It’s very simple. Just follow the steps:-

* download pidgin


1- Log in to your Gmail account on Pidgin.

2- Go to “Buddies” -> “Show Offline Buddies“. (A person who has blocked you must be showing offline to you. So you need to make all offline friends visible)

3- Now all your contacts are visible to you. Pick any one of those.

4- Right Click on your chosen contact name and select “Get Info“.
 

It will show you the brief information of your contact. Now, if any of your contact has blocked you on Google Talk, you will not be able to see his/her profile.

6- Select a contact who you think may have blocked you. Again, Right Click on his/her name and select “Get Info“. You will not see anything. Not even the contact’s name.


This goes to show that this particular contact has blocked you on Google Talk and don’t want to talk to you and so it appears to be offline always.

Hope, you like this article. This is the only way I could able to find out to determine who has blocked you on Google Talk. What’s your comment on this?

Microsoft Morro

Microsft is getting ready to release Morro which is its free antivirus software for its Windows operating systems. A trial version or public beta will be available soon but no specific date has been released.

Morro may hurt the sales of its comptetitors, McAfee and Symantec antivirus softwares. “It’s a long-term competitive threat,” said Daniel Ives who is an analyst with FBR Capital Markets.

It is designed to prevent viruses, spyware, rootkits, trojans, and other malicious software to run or enter a user’s computer.

“Microsoft’s free product is basically a stripped down version of the OneCare product Microsoft pulled from the shelves,” said Janice Chaffin of Symantec.
