sounds like another amazing plugin is in the making...

I still want to make you an installer if you need one though i guess you can do it yourself...

About the installer:
Hmm.. You are welcome to make me a decent installer.. But it needs to fullfill some criterias..
- I need to be able to add my own files to it
- Extrating files
- Registrying files
- Add other various registry values
- Shutting Down MSN Messenger (Normally, and Taskkill if normal shutdown fails, altso support for closing Tabbed Conversation when closing normally to prevent loss of log if Taskkill needs to be executed)
- Starting MSN Messenger
- Uninstaller
- GUI, Interface, Pictures, texts, etc...
- A Homemade installer would be best, not some NSIS or Inno because they cannot do these tasks

If you can fullfill all these criteria then I would be more than happy to use a installer you make for me (and of course give you all the Credit you want).. :D.. I can do all this my self, I just don't have time on my hands.. :(

Oki.. :P... If someone else would like to take the task of building a installer for me, that would be really appriciated.. I could do it myself some time.. But that would be later! Much later!...

Use the Nullsoft Scriptable Install System. It allows you to do everything you explained using its built-in scripting language.

Well I already use NSIS for my Shortcut Plugin, but I don't think that these to options can be scripted in NSIS?
- Shutting Down MSN Messenger (Normally, and Taskkill if normal shutdown fails, altso support for closing Tabbed Conversation when closing normally to prevent loss of log if Taskkill needs to be executed)
- Starting MSN Messenger

Can theý? IS it possible to add your own code like this? AFAIK no!.. You are still limited to what NSIS is capable of.. right?...

NSIS can do both of those things because it can call Windows API functions.

Even if it couldn't use the Windows API, it's not limited at all. You can write your own DLL and it will include the code of the procedure you choose in the installer, and you can call it at run-time, allowing you to do anything.
