Okedokies, well at dad's work he's not allowed to use MSN/Windows Messenger, however if i could take it in on a USB it "should" work.

Any ideas how i can do this? i.e. can i change the program name etc? Or any suggestions so it wont show up

boss protection in messenger plus

lol no no i didnt mean hide it like off the screen, its just his account is restricted alot, and messenger the exe is disabled so i need to hide the MSN file from like erm thinking how to put it, i need to hide it so the system lets it up... alterntavily get passed a webpage block.

patches made protable messenger you can try that

webmessengers?

Don't go for socalled portamessengers, msnm messenger needs certain keys in the registry to work. These portamessengers will make these keys in the registry and are unable to remove them properly.

This has been discussed in previous threads:

Portable Messenger

If you can't use msnm on a comp go for webmessengers.

MSN Messenger doesn't need any registry keys to work...

It works fine without them...

And if you want to install plus! on it, you just need the regkey that says what the install dir is of msn messenger

HKCR\CLSID\{0D81DFEC-5610-4a2b-9B57-FC33D21366F0}\LocalServer32 (default value)

Edit: About the connection... try to get the proxy information...
