Does this work if MSN Messenger is not running (as in, it opens msn messenger, connects, checks if contact is online, sends the file, etc...)???

Because if it doesn't, is seems to me a rather useless way of doing it (and very bloated if you don't have the .NET framework and need to install it also).

You can simply click, drag and drop any file in your MSN Messenger convo's or on a contact in your contactlist. That's standard Windows beheviour

But, I suppose some people might find the program usefull, so...

well... the initial idea is that it should also be possible to right-click a folder, zip it and send it directly to a contact (on-line or when he/she comes back on-line, like the 'welcome msg from Plus!')... rather a challenge eh?

Concerning the zip possibility: of course it is not needed to develop its own compression-tool inside it... a linkage to something like WinZip or WinRAR (configurable, like with anti-virus programs in e-mail clients) should do the job.

I think the plugin is very handy, for example when you are working with many convos open and a few explorers... Still too bad we can't send folders... But anyways, once It's up and rolling I will gladly use this plugin.
Oh, and I'd like that SMS thingy as well ;p What do I do to get it =D

What version of Windows Messenger are you using? You'll need to update it to the latest version, 4.7 if I'm not mistaken, to actually get the Messenger API interops to be working properly.

Nope, not yet, it'll need to have a local cache of ur contact list then as currently, it works by liaising with a running MSN Messenger login n grabbing the online contacts. And then you'll have a huge list of contacts to choose from in the menu unless there's a seperate dialog for it. But it's possible. Meanwhile, I'm still fixing the Windows XP bug. Will work on this feature next.

Hmm, that would be a challenge and it'll involve alot of API callings but should be possible. Get the folder, zip the folder and send the zip file to the contact. On the send to contact after when he/she comes online, the context menu will have to communicate with another proggie or a plugin for Messenger Plus. Well, busy with studying and all but I'll look through and see what I can do.

Okay, the weird thingy in Windows XP is it always works for files on the desktop, but only works for the first Window Explorer you open. Any subsequent Window Explorer that you open, the menu will not be there. It works quite well with Widows 98 SE, think it's some marshelling errors, will iron that out.

Meanwhile, get the latest version of the plugin, where you won't have the accidentally execution of the file you are trying to send. Make sure you uninstall the previous version, restart your PC, and reinstall the current one. Oh yeah, rename it to *.msi.

I've uninstalled the first build, restarted my computer, installed the one posted today, restarted my computer, signed in Messenger, right click a JPG file located on my desktop...

then... my computer is rambling for 10 seconds or so and then displays the right-click menu... nothing changed ... no new option 'send to msn contact' or such....

Update your Windows Messenger to 4.7, and MSN Messenger to 6.2. Both updates are required.

it should show E-mails only.  save space from long MSN contact nicknames.
