dmsn by chronic student on 05-25-2006 at 06:16 AM
does anyone know about dmsn? i downloaded it. i can see people even they are on 'appear offline' mode and whats more it alerts me when 'contact open chat window'. thats very nice i think. but the problem is i cant change my display picture 
and i cant use plugins like messenger plus! is this dmsn a fake programme?

Hello and welocme to the forum,
If the program you downloaded still is called dMSN then it's an old program.
It's renamed to Mercury messenger.
and in my opinion a good msn replacer (if you are on linux or mac)
you will find many anwsers to your questions on
www.mercury.to

[edit] mods can move this to T.T. or something doesn't belong in plugins[/edit]

You shouldn't be able to see who's in 'Appear Offline' at all: the servers won't let you.
RE: dmsn by chronic student on 05-25-2006 at 10:38 AM
me and my friends are able to see who's in 'appear offline' when we use dmsn messenger. it's old version i think that's why it's got this feature.

ok thanks. you've got a new PM
RE: dmsn by RaceProUK on 05-25-2006 at 04:52 PM
dMSN 1.7: Doesn't report 'Appear Offline' for me - it correctly thinks it's a logout.. Must only do so for other dMSN users.
Edit: And the English is poor too.

okk ive uninstalled it anyway it's useless... stuffplug rulez

Well, you should know that you cant see offline users or when another person opens a convo, its impossible.

I don't think it's impossible to know when someone opens a conversation window, afaik using MSNP10 the RNG packet (which tells the user-client to connect to the switchboard) is still sent when a contact opens their window...
RE: dmsn by RaceProUK on 05-29-2006 at 01:23 PM
Yes it is; but I think it's also sent when retrieving the DP, hence current notifiers get a little confised sometimes.
