I was just wondering if you could have 2+ "Sign In Automaticly" Things, and a quick sign out button (sorry for the crappy drawing):



Heres an image with a sign out button:

This has been suggested before and you're best bet would be to send this to MSN directly.

http://support.msn.com/contactus.aspx

in image 1 u mean u want 2 passowrds to be stored automatically ... err
... i have never heard of anything like this being there .... i aint to
sure that it can be done but it could be possible

2nd image: u want a quick signout .... there are wayz to add a button
to view ur contact card (well there was one for the 1st beta) so i
think this could be done but .... its hard Someone can do it
tho i guess

Well, i hope its possible, anyway did what mwe told me and i hope they get back to me.

For your first idea.
Although by default it is not possible, no sorry. At the moment there is no way of doing that. However fret not, this could be possible but it would involve making the messenger client look somewhere else for where to paste login information and display it where normally it is. To do this, I'd guess patching MSN Messenger would be the only way. And to get it to display correctly and store your passwords somewhere safe may be tricky. In long, there would be a fair bit of work to do, but yes in theory it may work. Sorry if what I said didn't make much sense, I was trying to think it through as I was going...

A very simple client modification would do this, however
patching is illegal, but for something like this, I'm sure a patcher
would do it.

I suggested the same thing a while ago for the first picture.. CyberDude said he'd work on it.. ( never got any news )

now some1 had given me a plugin that can do the job.. it's called Password Menager, I just can't seem to find the link, try searching on the Plugin sections http://www.msgplus.net

Take a look at this skin: http://www.afizicalpresence.com/

This one per example, that's great and has the signout button

You can try Password Reminder, which will remember and auto fill-in your password for any number of accounts so you don't have to type them in but you still have to go to File->Sign in. See Password Reminder


Also If you know how to use resourse hacker here is how to add a sign out button:

Open msnmsgr.exe with reshacker

Find (Ctrl+F): <element id=atom(suppress) padding=rect(3,0,0,0) content=rcstr(4229)
Result: UIFILE > 923 > 1033

Below this line is </cmdbutton>
Below that line paste the following:

code:

---

<cmdbutton cmdid=40210 class="ToolbarBtn" layout=flowlayout(0,2,0,2)> <png flip=false idres=1013 class="ToolbarIcon" /> <element foreground=rgb(0,0,0) padding=rect(0,0,2,0) content="Sign Out" contentalign=bottomleft | endellipsis/> </cmdbutton>

For the sign out button you could use mess patch....but like it was said earlier, its illegal to patch messenger.

Meh. Well problem resolved  ...... Almost

I contacted msn and this is what they had to say:

lol,

At least when I send em an e-mail they say what your trying to do. He just said unfourtunatly... anyways I would also like that 2nd sign in auto

It is possible, but it will take a lot of effort and time.
I'd be able to make it, but I dun have the time (unless you're prepared to pay a lot )

The reason why this can't be done (just like that) is because msn messenger uses the Windows crendentional system to save the default password. This can only be done with 1 password, thus only 1 password can be associated with a .NET Passport (and this is not a MSN Messenger limitation). So unless Microsoft changes this inside Windows itself, this is a no go.

And because this means not only modifying how MSN Messenger works (easy part), but also how Windows uses the whole crendentional system and related .NET Passport system (and thus also other non related 3rd party applications) it means a whole lot of work. In short: don't expect this to be added in MSN Messenger in the near futur...

The only thing you can hope for is if someone makes a program/addon to save MSN Messenger passwords in another place, and to patch MSN Messenger so it can also "read" from that other place as well, just as the Password Reminder plugin from Wouter...

Hmmm......


I was thinking in my dreams last night, and i thought that if everyone did that support thng like i did, then they just may do it, over a period of time.
