Hi Patchou!

     I have a simple feature request for you! It would be REALLY nice to be able to remove the big useless blue thing which is just under the menu bar of the main MSN Messenger contact window (you know, the thing that displays your status and nickname, with the big status logo and arrow to change it).

(see the red square on my screenshot!)

Do you think it would be possible? Give me feedback!

Thanks,

maybe someone could make a plugin for that but it's something form messenger itself so i don't think patchou will make that.. 

and why do you want it away anyway whats wrong with it

is this what you want?

Ye, thats what he's lookin for

great, find me a name and it should work in a few hours

Wow, it's  EXACTLY  what I want!

A name? HideTheUselessBlueThing MSN Messenger plugin!

Here it is. Tell me if it works.

Instructions for installing:
-Extract everything into the same directory.
-Copy dscwpmsg.dll into your system directory.
-Apply the registry patch.
-Restart MSN Messenger.

NOTE: the readme for dscwpmsg.dll tells you not to move it to the system directory... I don't know why. But there's one thing i know: it won't work if you put it into the application directory.

Hi!

   Thanks for the plugin... but I just can't get it working!
Here's what I've done:

    - Copied HTUBTPlugin.dll/HTUBTPlugin.lib in C:\Program Files\Messenger Plus! 3\Plugins
    - regsvr32 C:\Program Files\Messenger Plus! 3\Plugins\HTUBTPlugin.dll
    - copied dscwpmsg.dll in C:\WINDOWS\system32
    - run Regpatch.reg
    - killed MSN/MsgPlus
    - restarted everything; checked the plugin in the Plugins config section of MsgPlus ............... restarted everything again .......

nothing
doesn't work!

what am I doing wrong!?

Thanks,

FORGET THAT.

I've rebooted and it's working perfect now!

Thanks!

Hmm,

   It works, but if you close the contact windows (minimize to tray) and re-open it, the UBT re-appears!

k, i did that and its still normal

Hi Matthew!

     Try rebooting! I've got to reboot to get it working... be sure the plugin is CHECKED in your plugins sections of the Plus! config! The problem is also that the blue thing re-appears when you restore the contact window from the system tray; so you might try to check the option "Open messenger window ..." in the General section of the MSN options; just to be sure it works!

Good luck

lol i'd work on this but now i'm on vacation (3 weeks...) so i can't work on it

furthermore, hooking the treeview is damn annoying if you haven't got the handle

when i go into the plugins configuration for plus, theres nothing to check
