The only function dealing with sign-in that I found is Messenger::AutoSignin, which does not take any parameters. Question: how to sign in to Messenger using a specified Windows Live ID and corresponding password, both being available as strings in the script? Note: the Live ID does not necessarily be stored for "Remember me" on the PC yet.

I don't think there is any such function. I might be wrong though. But what's the point having your password in the script files, anyone could read it there.

I will not have it in the script files, but receive it through an XMLHTTP connection from a foreign host.

Dude, I will receive the login data from a specified host, probably even with an SSL connection, so dont worry about my coding and safety (you should know that I am a very cautious user and developer ). I just want to know a way to have the current Messenger process signing in to a specified strLiveId with an also specified strPassword...

I suppose you could write a batch file and run it (it's a sloppy method though really =/)

What commands/parameters though. And, any other idea?

Thanks Stigmata; I myself have already had a look at the Messenger.UIAutomation ActiveX object, but it does not support polygamy. Else would it be exactly what I need.

You have to change the default signin name in the registry and launch WLM. This will only work if the user has their password cached.
