Well, it's a bit of both actually. This plugin-version doesn't work 100% the same as the standalone version.
The plugin hooks the Notification Server session (which is basically the main connection of MSN Messenger) using a winsock hook. When there's an incoming or outgoing conversation request, it will intercept the Switchboard session (a separate TCP/IP connection for each conversation) using the good ol' MSN Proxy functionality. Plugins will be notified of new incoming or outgoing conversations and messages. Using a simple (100% threadsafe) callback mechanism you can also send messages to the local or remote user.
