LONDON, England (CNN) -- Microsoft says it will drop chat room services in 28 countries next month, in a move it says will ward off pedophiles and junk e-mailers.
In a statement, the Redmond, Washington-based software giant said it made the decision following the growing abuse of the Internet, particularly in unsupervised, anonymous chat rooms.
The company pointed to a rise in the use of junk mail known as spam and "unsolicited and inappropriate material, particularly with regards to children."
"The straightforward truth of the matter is free unmoderated chat isn't safe," Geoff Sutton, European general manager of Microsoft MSN, told Reuters news agency.
Chat rooms will be shut down in most of Europe, the Middle East, Africa, Asia and Latin America, from October 14, with millions of Internet users will need to find other online forums.
However, it will continue to offer unsupervised chat room access to users who subscribe to at least one other paid MSN service in the United States, Canada, Japan and Brazil, the company said.
In those countries MSN will have customers' billing details and identities on record and can track them if need be.
Looks like your Scripting days are Over Boys
But Dont Say I Didnt tell you so ;D
