RE: Group Convo's
I do believe it is possible. During SwitchBoard authentication a user will send the RNG, by default the receiving MSN Client doesn't visibly open a conversation window until it receives more than one 'IRO' (user already in convo) command which is the first data received in a successful SB session or until it receives a 'MSG' (message from user) command. Therefore it is possible to wait for the IRO commands to determine how many users (since the client does this anyway) and once more than one IRO command is received you could postpone the visible opening of a conversation window and instead display a msgbox asking whether you wish to join or not.
In an easier-to-understand way: You just count how many users are already in the conversation by monitoring the 'IRO' commands (which will be received before any messages) and if there is more than one then display a message box asking if the user wants to join the convo or not.
