There are a lot of inaccuraties and even wrong info in that article. So not for the newb whom doesn't reconize those inaccuraties and wrong stuff.
It also (again) suggests to use ZapMessenger while there is no real need for it. It suggests to download from OldVersion.com which has mostly depricted beta versions, while all the older versions in all the languages are still available on the official Microsoft Download Center.
And the 'trick' it explains to workaround possible updates will brake proper protocol workings and makes developping future protocol stuff harder.
Not a realy good article I would recomend reading (if you're a 'newb' that is).
