Windows Live Messenger 2011 - Where is the Security Tab?

Post by simonmlewis »

Hi

I have a friend far away that has gone into Tools > Options, but unlike my older version 2009, the Security tab is missing.

I need to get to it as she cannot click any links in her message window.

Anyone know where the Security tab is??

As long as you have a pro version of windows, you can turn off 'simple file sharing' to show ACL's

No she has Windows 7 standard, not 'pro'.
The old MSN 2009 version had 'Security' in the Tools and Options.
It's gone from the 2011 version (and there's me thinking Microsoft like to keep the Security top of their list!!).
