Default MSN Messenger swear filter removal

Was just chatting away with friends when i noticed that MSN have introduced a swear filter.

What is even worse, its an "intelligent" one So it blocks loads of other things that are not even close to swearing replacing the text at the recipients end with ######

Is there anyway to remove this, as its drving me nuts

With the swear filter on I have nothing to say.


Keep the %7$3***** thing turned off.

To turn it off do the following:

1) ######## into ##### #####
2) click on #######
3) hit ######### #######

All done.
