Shoutbox

How about changing it to a script which would send a message to specific contats or groups or even all contacts - you could make a window with checkboxes, like this:

__________________________
__________________________
|Groups:
|
| o All - o None
|
| o Contact Group 1
| o Contact Group 2
| o Contact Group 3
__________________________
|Contacts:
|
| o All - o None
|
| o Contact 1
| o Contact 2
| o Contact 3
__________________________
| o Close windows after message sent
__________________________

("o" stands for checkboxes here)


It would be good because the group message function of MSN invites all group members into a group conversation which is pretty annoying IMHO.
