Pidgin Messenger users: how do you block incoming IMs that are not on your buddy list for Windows Live?

Iscariot: I love having so much protocol support via Pidgin Messenger, but can't help but feel that the options to fine-tune each one are severely limited.
What gives? Is there at least a way to block incoming IMs from these viral porn chatbots? Blocking 5+ per day is really getting to me. (1 answer)

Why do alt codes not work without a 10-key numeric pad?

Iscariot: I'm talking about character shortcuts here. I'm frustrated with my laptop because I have to copy and paste them from Character Map just to utilize special characters. It also doesn't seem to recognize some of them when quoting or copying other text. Why the hell? (2 answers)

How are internet transfer speeds/signals affected by traffic?

Iscariot: The idea of weaker signals at prime times of the day seems ludicrous, but from observation, it appears to hold some water. What's the scoop? Am I imagining things? (1 answer)

Who uses a music networking site?

Iscariot: Which, and how do you like it?

I'm personally on last.fm and it functions great for me. I've discovered a ton of new music based off of my already (inordinately) massive collection, and it always keeps things fresh. (6 answers)

Where does internet-based socialization stand against more traditional means?

Iscariot: IE: phone, or face to face interaction.

Obviously nothing is quite the same as physical presence, but for times when it isn't entirely necessary, does internet-based conversation and planning take precedence? (2 answers)
