As far as I understand, you want to read their chat logs without their notice. "DisplayWizardFirstStart", disable this option (you can learn how to do here Messenger Plus! Live - Registry Settings), because if people who firstly signin on your computer read the wizard, they will notice that Messenger Plus! can save their chats. Also not showing Messenger Plus! buttons on Windows Live Messenger windows may prevent them to notice that Messenger Plus! is installed on the computer.

If they already signed in on the computer, you must add the suitable keys for chat logging to the registry key of each person. If the information above is not enough, I'll write more about how to add keys to the registry.

He doesn't want to read the chat logs of other the other users perse, he wants to log who uses Messenger.

This can be done by either enabling the Event Viewer for each user (and new users), either making a very very small script (which will run for each user anyways) or, if you don't care about when they signed in, just look at the stored emails in the registry subkey HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Patchou\Messenger Plus! Live.

Or you can even log it without the use of Messenger Plus!.

For this you need to enable the connection logging of Windows Live Messenger:
Tools > Options > Connection > Advanced Settings > Save a log of my server connections to help troubleshoot connection problems.

After that, the log, named "MsnMsgr.txt", can be found in the directory of the transfered/received files (which can be found here: Tools > Options > File Transfer). Look for lines with "Zone_HotmailService In CHotmailService::Logon" in the log.

This (debug) log even contains far more info than just their email address (it includes buddies, personal messages, nick names, etc, almost every aspect of Messenger can be logged. And an extreme lot of things can be configured/traced/turned on or off).

Enabling the event log in Messenger Plus! is probably the easiest and best sollution.
