I am a network admin. I would like to know how to disable
the games in msn messenger 6.1? Cani disable them or
block a port? What would it take? Thank you.

Greetings Mark,

They run over normal HTTP, port 80, so simply "blocking ports" won't do it.  The site that is
accessed for games is "appdirectory.messenger.msn.com" -- if you block that, should stop
games from being played.
