i don't listen to radio on computer but im guessing the name of the radio is virgin or something. This won't work like indiviual songs do because.
When you have a playlist of songs, as soon as a song finishes MSN Messenger can tell that the song is finished, when the Media player starts a new song. all the names etc are changed to that of the new song, allowing messenger to get the new song name and artist etc.
if its a radio station im pretty sure the name of the 'song' is called like 'Virgin Radio' and never updates, because in an easy way of explaining it, it's all one song. therefore MSN Messenger not knowing it's a radio and not knowing what song it is to be able to update your Personal Message.

Usually it does show this.
Depending on what the online radio station you're listenning to sends to Windows Media Player / Itunes, this is what is going to show on you're MSN Messenger personal message.
E.G. 1. :
I'm listenning to Lp15-Radio to the song "You're Beautiful By James Blunt "
My Windows Media Player shows :
"Lp15-Radio - You're Beautiful - James Blunt "
then this is going to appear in my personal message :
"Lp15-Radio - You're Beautiful - James Blunt"
BUTTTTT
If the radio im listenning to only shows "Lp15-Radio" in my Windows Media Player / Itunes then the only thing ull see in MSN Messenger personal message is : "Lp15-Radio".
I hope you understand that you cannot really change that with a plugin, u would need the radio station to send you more information to you're Windows Media Player / Itunes
