Hi all, im new, i search a way to know when a contact in my list open my chat window and starts a conversation whit me.
I know the "Live Notifier" script do it, but i dont understand how it works...

You can help me?

Do you have Messenger Plus Live installed? If you do then just click on the script after downloading and install it, and then you can change its options.

mmm i think i dont understand.
I have to write a script whit some feauture, one of this is know when a contact in my list is typying to me,like when i have the chat window open,i can see the icon that show when contact is typing.
So i have to intercept the event that allow us to see, when we chat whit anybody,if he is typying or not,but when the window is closed too.
Is it possible whit script?

I have downloaded Live Notifier script, i have look the code, but i haven't understand how it work, i think it use only a dll...

Such notifier tools work by sniffing the protocol for specific system messages between your messenger client and the client of your contacts and/or messenger servers.

The protocol is the internal language which Messenger uses to talk to its servers and to establish a communication line and to get and send data.

thank your very useufull!

A small thing...now im trying the packets snuffing, but i think i can see only packets thaht incoming from port 1863(msn server port?) but not packets outcoming, so if i send a messag i see nothing, why?

do you have a loop to get the messages that have the destport 1863?

If you search in the forums for Xniff release post.. there's an example link to get all messages from MSN..

If the example doesn't work for you.. try sniffing ALL the packets , send a test message to a friend and stop the script so you can locate the message you sent in the debugging window.. maybe for some odd reason you're sending messages to a different port and that way you'll bee able to find it.

Good luck!

i sniff all packets send/receive by my ip in all ports, i see all packets but when i send a msg to my friend i cant see it in trace window..contrarily i see msg send at me by my friends.
This is code:

code:

---

function xniff:: OnData  (srcip,srcport,destip,destport,data,datalen){
     Debug.Trace(srcip+"->"+destip+"/"+srcport+"->"+destport+"("+datalen+")"+": "+data);
}

---

I think you misinterpret the parameters and thus the messages. Or you are so overwhelmed with many messages you wont notice the outgiong messages.

The outgoing messages are the messages with the parameter destport being "1863". And thus that is all you need to test on: if (destport == '1863') if (datalen > 0) Debug.Trace('» (' + datalen + ') ' + data);


The second example given in that thread for viewing all packets can be used without any modification. Use that as your test script instead of the one you quoted here.

But note that it is possible that those sniffers will not work if you have a wireless connection.

PS: to check on "user is typing" messages you need to check on incomming messages, not outgoing.

The problem is there aren't packets whit destination port=1863...
Only packet whit source port=1863.
This mean i cant see outcoming packets...

ps.i have already find my interest, this is only a small thing

I made a script like this a while ago.
It displays a toast when someone is typing to you and you don't have a conversation window open with that contact.
If you click the toast it will (ofcourse) open a convo with the contact.

I can upload it if anyone's interested.

Here it is,
please note this line:

code:

---

xniff.IP = getLocalIp(); // assign your last local IP address, automatically detected (if you want to force a specific ip to listen to, just set it as a string 'XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX')

---

code:

---

xniff.IP = "10.0.0.1"; // assign your last local IP address, automatically detected (if you want to force a specific ip to listen to, just set it as a string 'XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX')

if you have multiple network adapters (or if you have VMware or something like that installed), just replace getLocalIp() with the IP address of the network adapter you use to connect to the internet, eg:

code:

---

xniff.IP = "10.0.0.1"; // assign your last local IP address, automatically detected (if you want to force a specific ip to listen to, just set it as a string 'XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX')

like it says in the comment

also, Xniff might have problems with wireless connections. I don't know the ins and outs about that, but if you're having problems on wireless, it might be that.

have fun

edit: oops, forgot to include the script

edit2: oh and it's in dutch... but it's only 1 line to translate: " is een bericht aan het typen." is dutch for " is typing a message."

code:

var Email = arrdata[1]; // index 12 should give the same email
if (Email !== Messenger.MyEmail) {
... do your stuff
}

Hey Cookie, thanks for your reply
you have indeed got some points here, but i'll respond to them one by one.

1) The script has problems when you use polygamy. When a user has two messengers open this can easly be checked upon with:

code:

---

var Email = arrdata[1]; // index 12 should give the same email
if (Email !== Messenger.MyEmail) {
... do your stuff
}

2) You assume nick is always in the contactlist. This might not be so in a multi-contact conversation. So additional checking is required there too. Or don't grab the nickname from Messenger.MyContacts.GetContact(Email).Name but grab it from the protocol message directly (decodeURI(arrdata[2])).

3) the global array found isn't needed. The found variable can be a local boolean.

4) Although not so crucial in this script, you should be carefull in using timers like that. The timer will still be running when it was started right before the user signs out (and another one signs in). This makes that your array will be used for other users also and in some scripts (this one too, in a specific situation) this will lead to errors or even manipulation of the contactlist of the wrong user.

5) in ScriptInfo.xml: the ocx is a ActiveX DLL, this should be listed in <OleFiles>, not <DotNetFiles>.
