Windows Live Messenger blocked in embargoed countries

May 25th, 2009

Last week, LiveSide reported that Microsoft decided to block access to Windows Live Messengers users in Cuba, Syria, Iran, Sudan, and North Korea. users from these countries now receive an error message “810003c1: We were unable to sign you in to the .NET Messenger Service”.

Seems like the reason for that is that Microsoft has discontinued providing IM services in countries subject to the US sanctions and embargo.  It is yet unknown if this decision was imposed or voluntarily.

The answers where surprising, as people from all over the world replied and we’ve found out that we have fans in England, Australia, US, Vietnam, Malaysia, France, Germany, Macedonia, and the list goes on…

We wanted to know here how do you call our smileys / emoticons / winks and other animations we offer - in your own language.

Please tell us where you are from and what are the words you are using to describe these creatives:

Emoticon / Smiley:

Wink:


You can also tell us how you say these: Sound Effects, Videos, Display Pictures / Avatars, and Nudges.

Thanks,
