Msn messenger is an instant messaging service. NOT a chatroom. You can talk to your
friends online and your friends only, unless you add someone to your contacts list that you do not know. Its a service that allows you to talk to your
friends for free. So
parents stop being paranoid...it is NOT and I will repeat NOT a chatroom!
