Hello people,

I was thinking some days ago: is it possible for a script to do not show that you are typing a message? -> so the contact will not see that you are typing a message (with the message under the "chat window")...

I know that the bad point is that the contact can think that you stoped to write a message..

Yes it is possible if you patch Messenger (which can be done with scripts). But IIRC this will also make it that you don't see the message anymore either.

EDIT: it is possible to make it that contacts wont see you typing and you will still see contacts typing, or vice versa, or both...

Also, in theory you could use WPE Pro, which is a packet editor, to stop the packet saying that you are typing the message being reached to the messenger servers, which means, that the other user won't see that you are typing a message...
But as i said, in theory...

Gonna test this now...
Or, if I wont edit this post soon with information, it means that I will have probably gone for sleep, and that I would reply after school tommorow...

Edit: Did some research on it ... it seems to be possible, but for some reason, just as Cookie said, you can't see when the other is typing a message
I will do more investigation tommorow...

If someone's intrested, download wpe pro (search google for it) and try making a filter yourself ... (again, search google for a tutorial...)

thats easy.. type it in notepad and paste it into the chat window

Maybe its possible to have a wannabe-inputbox.
This may sound rather stupid, but if someone is able to make some kind of popup with a input-box in it, then we could use that to send the messages straight to MSN.

So lets say, you have a plugin.
When you typ something in the inputbox of MSN Messenger itself, then the plugin detects that your typing. A popup shows up, and the inputbox of MSN messenger gets cleaned. This will force you to typ in the popup-box that the plugin shows.
When your done typing your message, you just typ 'SEND' and then the plugin sends it directly to the contact. This should be working, but it can be quite annoying too.

Seriously...

I been messing around with plugins and patching messenger. I think it's MUCH easier to create a filter in any packet analyzer than creating a plugin or patch to msn to do this.

The downside is you can't send it to your friends but take my word for it .. it's not an easy task to create a patch.

Have fun.

So people, I don't remember the name of the program, but, I remember this program has a lot of functions (that for me I'll never use them) and one of the function was what I'm asking...
So, that means that this program, when you tick/untick this option adds/unadds this filter???

PS: The program uses MSN 7 OR 7.5...

yes, as far as I remember there were some patches for pre v7.5 versions that had this function, and I used them aswell.

It's really annoying when you start typing a plus! command and your contact stops writing because he thinks you'll say something ..

So, if script, patch or packet sniffer, it would be great if someone would reinvent a fix for the 'user is typing' message.

I think MDL can do this, but MDL sucks :/

And... till now there are no solutions for this request???

Edit: I've see that today another post like mine was created... And all this time, I was thinking: There is a way to copy (if it's possible and legal) the MDL's code fot this "action"???
