TRADITIONAL PROXY SUPPORT HAS BEEN REMOVED FROM MSN MESSENGER

MSN Messenger 7 BETA has now been leaked.

Support for traditional proxying of data has seemingly been REMOVED. Any application that relied on modifying the "Server" key of HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\MSNMessenger in order to proxy the data will no longer function whatsoever as this registry key has been [probably permanently] removed

I am developing a workaround for this issue. It may or may not be released open-source once it is complete. For additional information, please email me or add me to MSN Messenger with my email address jonathan[at]xeomax.net

To clarify, applications such as Messengeriscovery will probably NOT work with MSN Messenger (although not tested). i would just like to clarify this is not connected with Messenger Plus! issues with MSN Messenger 7.

I look forward to hearing from any developers interested in a workaround to this issue.

Regards,
