No, this can not be done...

And because of security reasons this will also not be added to Plus! itself in they way you want (=> people could make a link saying "download new msgr now" but the URL would point to a fake and malicious program).

eg: Download Messenger now

----------

However, if you put in a link in your the Personal Message (correct name for what you mean), it would be possible for your contacts to go to the link by right-clicking your name:

Right-click on contact in contactlist > Messenger Plus! Features > Open Internet Link > ...

That's not completely the same. Notice how the URL is visible and not just text like "download messenger".

The TP asked for something like the Now Playing links. Those links are text with an URL underneath it. This is different than automatically highlighting URLs. Links like the Now Playing feature will not be added (even in WLM9), and if they do be sure there will be protest from beta testers.....

In other words: WYSIWYG (What you see is what you get).
