would it be possible to have the name of the originator on the im's?
i know that for the women on site who get bombarded with them,at least they then get the choice as to opening them or not. rather than just closing them as they appear

We know that IMs are a problem, and we are searching for a solution.

I didn't say you were a fool but if thats how you read it....fair enough!!! Capslock is key just a little reach away. I find its easily employed/deployed with the left pinky finger.

I meant any fool knows that a decent pop-up blocker stops pop-up's...IM's come under the pop-up category...

Just because someone comments on a forum,It does not mean that they are commenting about YOU!

Well, actually, you might say it's a waste of time...but, since these forum replies are not being printed, no ink is involved. Hence, no waste of ink.

If the dunce cap fits... ;-)

I think you got a good idea there Martin100, and I agree that it would be great to see who IMs you... It can actually be a "true" friend

Or maybe people should whisper and ask permission before they IM? That would, after all, be the polite thing to do ... who am I kidding? Won't happen. The ones that annoy me most are the ones that just say 'hi'. Umm ... you need to whisper that??? I don't block pop-ups ... as soon as an IM window appears, it's closed before I even know who it is. If necessary, I apologise afterwards. Just ask first ... think of all the hassle we'd all avoid!

would it be an idea to be able to assign friends the ability to IM you? that way you know any IM you get is from someone that you might actually want to receive one from in the first place, then if its also flagged with a name as martin suggests, you can decide whether to open it.

If its sorted out the IM feature is a good one, and not one that many people want to block or turn off, no matter how easy it is for any fool to do!
