But no need to shout at us because it clearly does work! As other people have stated, it is correct most of the time! I have even discovered this by asking people if they just opened a conversation window with me after seeing a notification - 9 times out of 10 they will say "yes!"

So it CAN work but not always. My friends also have no bother with it.
If it doesn't work, explain how my friends ALWAYS know when I open a window?
It works at start but in the end it doesnt.
Let me give you a example:
You are in one room blindfolded and behind you is a crappy PC and a radio hooked up to the same speaker. Imagine that the radio and the PC (internet radio) is hooked up to 95.3 FM . Do you think you could tell if it was the radio or the PC giving the signal if it was hooked up to the same low quality speaker? I think not.
Thats how reliable open-convo notifers are.

And your points stop someone making a script for this feature because......?
Why would you want a PC with no sound card, no graphics card, no motherboard, no RAM, no processor, no HDD, no optical unit, no floppy, no case, and no PSU?

I'd use one, i wouldn't really care if it wasn't 100% accurate, even if it's only 50% accurate that's better than nothing. i'd make one for ya if i knew how, unfortunatly i don't know how.
@cookierevised: you opinion is not law, this topic should have never been closed, stop shouting and calm down, you're acting like my sister when she doesn't get her own way - someone might want to make a notifier for the 50% change of it working..

Read my reply to al2002.
If you really want something that doesnt work, make it yourself. Im sure if you research and learn about Messenger, you could make it yourself.

It WOULD be possible to do this, but it would require a DLL which hooks onto WLM and then a script which calls functions from the DLL, AKA, a wrapper script, because the scripting syster doesn't have access to the protocol information.
Until someone, (if they ever do) makes it, MessengerDiscovery Live has this feature.

I have theories on ways a notifier can be done (I havent read 100% the scripting doc though) but If several times throughout this thread its been said that it doesnt work
IT DOESNT WORK
This is basically a head/tails coin thing people. It doesnt work. Your gonna have to wait for protocol 15 or something (which I doubt it will work there but hey....since you people dont accept FACTS youll believe anything)
