Spam on most networks through the abuse of private message is a problem. I can script a msg block, d/l one or even dissable pm. But for a new user its perplexing. So i suggest just as the /remote (on/off) displays red dots on the tool bar icon, a pm block icon that displays red when on. Additionally it could reply a simple reply to the person sending the msg eg. woozey's prvt msg off.
