A Block Checker - A Great Tool to Find Out If You Are Being Ignored

Have you ever got the eerie feeling that someone that you are trying to communicate with online may have a block on your email or instant messenger account? It is entirely possible with a block checker!

You can block anyone from communicating with you on Yahoo Messenger, AIM, G-Talk and others instant messenger sites - and it does not take more than a few clicks to activate these types of programs. If the suspense is killing you - you can find out just what's going on by installing and using a one of these programs which will, as the name implies, check to see if you are in fact, being blacklisted by this particular individual.

If you are using Yahoo Messenger, look under the "options tab" and then click on "privacy". You will see a list that says "allow" or "block" and an option that says "all others". This must be in bold in order for you to see if people are blocking you, and the person you want to check must also have "all others" unchecked on his or her list. The reason is because that the block checker must be given permission to see if that person is online - which is the only way that the program can see if you have been blocked.

Basically, if the block checker sees this mysterious person online and you do not see them online - then you may assume that the person has blocked you. This is the way that most all of these types of programs work - and keep in mind that they are not entirely accurate - the code to these programs is certainly nothing like rocket science, so there is a large margin for error.

Lots of folks have default settings on their Yahoo Messenger, which means that they have the "only allowed" segment checked and then "all others" to allow on their list, which is why block checkers work with most emails - but again, nothing is written in stone so don't become too offended - you might not be blocked - the other party may simply be logging on as invisible to everyone.

There are different block checker programs for all of the major messaging sites - including MSN, AIM, G-Talk and others - so if you believe someone has you blocked, you can do a quick check and get a pretty good idea (although not concrete) if you have been kicked out of their cyber world or not. These programs can be invaluable tools - but if they really are not returning your instant messages or emails -do you really want to find out the "ugly truth" or do you want to just "move on" and stop obsessing?
