To manually set your status to "idle" (which will always be shown as "away" in unpatched Messengers), you need to alter/adapt the communication between the Messenger client and the Messenger servers, in other words you need to use the protocol. In other words, this can't be done by simply patching Messenger.


it can, but you lose one status.

the best to lose is the "on the phone"... so:

- Search in hexmode in msnmsgr.exe for PHN (case sensitive)
(next to it will be AWY and LUN)

- Replace the PHN for IDL

- save and exit

done, now when you select the "on the phone" on messenger you will became Idle (you have to have the messeger pached to see the diference for away and idle off course)

and if you want to became idle on menus also you will have to change the msgslang.dll and replace the "On the phone" for "Idle"

reminder and note: you will lose the ability for setting that Status (in this ex: on the phone) and if anyone at you list sets their status to (ex: on the phone) you will not see it, to you they appear like normal Online

thats the both downside of doing this

happy carnaval :o)
