Hmm, I got it done with C# and VB.NET. I'm a C# coder and downloaded the base classes needed to implement a context menu handler (that's what this kinda things are called) that's written in VB.NET. Bummer. It's copy and pasting codes from everywhere and making them work. Anyway, it's working well, but now I need to know what kinda dependencies are needed, does the .NET Framework need to be installed? What other files do I need to include?
It's working somewhat weird, sometimes it works on all files, sometimes it doesn't at all. But it always works for files on the desktop. I think it's something to do with the registry or there's something wrong with the codes somewhere. Since I'm using the Messenger API, the only function available is the SendFile and using that, only the FileDialog will pop up and not sent automatically. I have to use SendKeys to send the Enter key to the MSN and that works alrite, but sometimes launches the file instead.
So, I'll release the proggie once I find out what's needed for it to run properly. And need to tweak the registry settings. Any ideas anyone? Oh yeah, it's an dll file, not a plugin whatsoever.

(P/S I did a proggie which sends an SMS to me everytime someone comes online, pretty buggy though, but working alrite, anyone interested?
