Hi! This is my another script(one of my useless script)...Some time ago I have seen a lot of requested about how to solve the freezing at sign-in but also when you are already online:The problem is the seguent:

If someone who has cracked the characters limitation send you a long message(online and offline message)your wlm freezes.With my script you can remove this freezing(you will be able to see long messages without freezing)....
Thanks to Beta Tester:Vikke,Fuse,Felu,Rugantino,Felipe,CyberDude
A Big Thank(as always )to CookieRevised For the functions to write bytes in memory and to have given me a lot of advices....

How To use this script:
Enable it from Plus Script Menu

NOTE:This script is only for WLM 8.1.0178

........................................................................................................Greetings


EDIT : SCRIPT UPDATED,CHANGE LOG:

-SCRIPT IMPROVED
-SOLVED A BUG(Now it's possible save the settings on the registry)

nice nice nice hotfix to messenger...

extremely good script (from a very god scriptor - and good beta testers )

i recommend everyone downloads..you never know when someone is purposefully trying to crash your messenger

Nice, this is really good for evil friends of mine (Won't name anyone specifically, you know who you are )

!!

i'll translate it into spanish for personal use

this is great its like a anti flood protection iv got something that does this but might as well give this a try good work Guru

awesome!!!!

You might want to tell your users this script removes the security checks from each message recieved.

There will be a feature in Stuffplug 3 doing this, but replacing the current security method with a new one, a faster one!

How do I get this to start with Messenger?
When I sign in it says "Anti-Freeze Disabled"

How can I make it be enabled at start up. Like the NudgeToolsScript?

Yes...Look at Image:

It seems like there's an error in reading the preference. If you know how to edit the script, look at line 20 where it says:

code:

---

Active = Boolean(oShell.RegRead(MsgPlus.ScriptRegPath + Messenger.MyUserId + "\\Antifree"));

---

code:

---

Active = Boolean(oShell.RegRead(MsgPlus.ScriptRegPath + Messenger.MyUserId + "\\Antifreeze"));

it should be:

code:

---

Active = Boolean(oShell.RegRead(MsgPlus.ScriptRegPath + Messenger.MyUserId + "\\Antifree[color=green]ze[/color=green]"));

---

That should fix it.

PAY ATTENTION THE FILTERING TAKES PLACE ON MSN SERVERS:Try to send any message with .pif or groupicture.php (example www.msn.groupicture.php):the server reject these messages..Using this script you don't risk anything.....

Alright, as we seem to be shouting back and forth about the security thing, I figured I might as well clarify a few things, as also I have done quite a bit of research into this.
Basically what this script does is remove the internal messenger checks to check for virus-urls and things like that. These checks are mostly done on the server side too, but I am 100% certain that the messenger team has a very good reason to also do this on the client side. If you ask me, bluntly removing security checks is something you should not do. And to be quite honest, simply naming it "anti-freeze" without even informing users what exactly is removed, isn't something I appreciate.
I've written my own method to speed up the security checks (by replacing certain ones with faster, yet equivalent, checks), which (as vikke said) will be in P3, but to clear things up I've also taken a quick look at this script, and I've noticed that it doesn't even do properly what it is supposed to do. It removes all but one security check, but in the mean time allows for another freezing/crashing method: It will crash if there is only one security check received from the server...

So actually, using this script you do, in fact, risk something. It does remove the freezing upon huge messages, but it also removes some (in my eyes) vital security checks, and creates some new problems that won't do any good to messengers overall stability...
Use this at your own risk.

OH this is great! Im downloading it. I though that it was a problem with my very low end pc. But it seems to happen to more people. Thanks for this hotfix.

To me "to fix" a bug doesn't mean "to delete" something good...

To jump an istruction is like deleting it,with the difference tht its space in memory is still used...
For the check..well 1 don't know if just msn servers' check is enough(you say it is but if it really is...what is the purpose of doing it for the client too?)so I like better to keep my messenger as it is.
I'm not saying your patch is useless,so don't get angry,I just say that with it you cover a fall somewhere and make a new fall somewhere else.
N.B.I said "it isn't something good" not the contrary...leggi bene prima di scrivere

Checks in the client can be usefull:
- when the server check is disabled for whatever reason (maintenance, fall-out)
- when something is connected directly to the client. Some things in Messenger already have the ability to go straight to the user and not via the servers. It is quite possible that this will be used more in the future and/or for other things than file transfers etc...

I strongly agree with TB on this matter...
I also agree with the fact that people should be informed in detail what such tools do exactly. Even if not all people will understand it, or understand the consequences, some will. And with tools like this it is absolutely vital that it is understood what it exactly does and what the consequences might be.

Although, I also agree with the point that TheGuruSupremacy made that TB should have considered the consequences when he made the boosting of characters in messages.

IIRC I remember some discussions between Patchou and TB of why some things weren't included in Plus! while they were perfectly possible (eg: Plus! only boost the amount of characters to something far lower than what StuffPlug does, probably for these reasons).

Anyways, bottom line and most important thing here is, I think, that the user should be well informed in great detail of what such things do.

(and that TB's implementatoin in StuffPlug 3 of this fix is far better)

Oh well, doesn't really matter anyway
Microsoft fixed the issue by simply changing the regular expressions to nicer ones after I sent them an email about it, so no point in either the SP feature or this script now

---

Johny65, also note that the thing which is talked about here, is not about Messenger crashing. The previous checks only made Messenger extremely slow, but it wouldn't crash.

If you experience crashes when someone sends you large messages it might be due to another bug.

PS: Don't forget to report bugs to Microsoft so they can be fixed.

CookieRevised, yes, I refered to crashing but I would say "extremely slow". When someone sends me a large message, my messenger still gets extremely slow, that I can't do anything and I have to close it with Ctrl+Alt+Supr.
Why?
