Okay I know alot of you probably don't use MSN, and use AIM or whatever... but for those who do....

Do you know where I can find a plugin or something that tells me if someone closes the conversation?

I know it's possible, since GAIM does it, but I'd like to know if I can get it on my normal MSN messenger?

I don't use linux on principle so I can't really use GAIM :p Besides I think GAIM is ugly.

Thanks alot

Actually, Trillian does it. (http://www.ceruleanstudios.com)

Trillian is a Multi-chat program which access the AIM, MSN, ICQ, and Y! Chat servers and allows you to import your lists for each one to use all four simultaneously. It also has a usuable IRC clientelle...but that needs some work still.

The MSN client does give you a message if they have closed the window (Upon typing a line, it will tell you that they have entered the conversation, this shows you that a chat window has opened on their screen. If you get this repeatedly, it means that the other person keeps closing their window on you). It's a wrap-around, but it works.

Thanks, however I was more thinking of a plugin for the actual MSN program...?

Trillian doesn't work on my computer, and besides I kind of like the games loader and MSN plus and other things I have on the actual msn program.
