There is absolutly no way Plus! or any Plugin will be able to do this. The reason being is the way the Messenger Server works. The Client (which is your computer) Recognizes the default emoticons. Now if you place the text for the custom emoticon in your name the server will see it as plain text and not send the file to the persons computer so it can be displayed. So seeing how the Server sees it as plain text in the name then the Client will as well. The only way this is possible is if Microsoft changes the server to send the custom emoticons (if any in the name) the moment you open the window, but that would suck for people still on 56k (which half of the USA is).
