Anyone noticed that if you try to send a mediafire link on msn you get booted?
Doesn't happen with rapidshare or megaupload. Why is this?

Weird.

http://www.mediafire.com

and

http://mediafire.com

both get me booted, but not one other upload site does it!

I know. It's weird. Why would MSN block that and not others?
Who owns mediafire?

Some people have said it sometimes happens with youtube links too.

Not sure how reliable this is:

YouTube now joins the list of blocked sites including eBuddy and MediaFire. eBuddy was supposedly blocked because of advertising messages when starting a new conversation, and MediaFire blocked to try stop distribution of the leaked Windows Live Messenger 9.0.

I know that "AIM" has "AOL" in it and "AOL" has "America" in it but come on people it's not like signing up for AIM means you are licking Bush's asshole.

see i would, except I don't know a single person with AIM. It's hard enough trying to get people to switch from MSN to gtalk/gchat and everyone has gmail. Some of them even use their gmail acct as their MSN login. people are lazy.

Yeah I don't know anyone with AIM. And AOL have actually in fact stolen money from me, so fuck anything to do with them.

I have AIM but most of my friends use MSN.

britishes have MSN and merkins have AIM so it seems

i has an adium :)

DG, Wednesday, 14 May 2008 18:20 (seventeen years ago)

Adium definitely! One of the major bennies of AIM vs. MSN is that you can SMS via AIM. I don't think you can do that on MSN, can you? This became really useful for me when I discovered that my bassist who doesn't return calls, doesn't use IM, doesn't return email, etc., will actually respond to TXTs, so I have an actual chance of scheduling a same-day practice.
