Look, none of this is helping. If you have any very helpful information or at least how to detect a nudge, go ahead and post. But if you don't, please don't post.

Packet sniffing

Only current possible way is using Xniff. Is it reliable? No.

Okay. Would you tell me where to get Xniff? Google's not loading for some reason.

Thanks.

Okay. Thanks!

Edit: Oh dear, I don't know how to work ActiveX Contol.

Offtopic: If you don't know how to read the code this would be an excellent place to start to develop your skills (if you're interested). You don't have to understand what every single statement means and does, but as long as you can understand what the gist of the code is doing and telling you, you're already off to a good start.

Not only will these skills allow you to interpret other people's scripts, but possibly even allow you to extract the various parts you want to use yourself (provided they have cited it is ok to use their work if they are recognised as owning the portion of code in yours)

Anyway, if you are new to scripting you should be doing basic things first to develop your skills, working your way up to the more complex things (such as what you're working on now?) Or maybe you've already done that.

That's just my opinion of course.

I'm currently making something that will "teach" people how to use Xniff properly and discover which protocol messages mean what. Obviously, there are quite a few messages to cover so this may take a while

Okay.

No offense but all that is already done:

How to use Xniff properly:
[Release] Xniff (ActiveX Packet Sniffer) - Examples inside

What are the protocol messages:
- Also the post from Xniff gives a good example how to sniff all messages
- http://www.hypothetic.org/docs/msn/
- http://msnpiki.msnfanatic.com/index.php/Main_Page
- http://zoronax.bot2k3.net/
- etc

All _very_ clearly explained.

Of course, if you can not walk first, you should never start to run...

I find that they are only explained well in the context of being able to send and receive messages. Messages sniffed appear different to those in the examples they show. Not only would it be a good way to show people how detecting various events occurs, but also good and accurate ways of doing it themselves. Many people who script do not know how to properly use Xniff
