no, most people want an open window notifier! It is only by our doings that some people start to realize there is no such thing as a windows open notifier. But still most people do not know this and want a window open notifier, not an "open session notifier".

No indeed..., unless the thing you once had only existed because a certain developper was beeping tired of all the whining of the people because he had removed it in his plugin once it wasn't realiable anymore. People couldn't accepted that it didn't work anymore and that was the one and only reason why you had such a thing in the past (after it was prooven it didn't work anymore).

No, that's actually called a fact.
No developper here apparently wants to create such an open window notifier or even an open session notifier as all developpers here know it will be misinterpreted anyways, and the whole misconception starts over again, just as a couple of years ago.
If you still want it, I'd suggest to make it yourself....

Although I didn't fully agreed with what has been done here, it clearly prooves a few things:
1) People think they know something about something, while in fact they don't know a thing. So how are they even going to 'know' what a false notification is or what a good one is? Because they say they can? Sorry, I don't believe this for one bit.
2) Even after posting big threads, warnings, explanations on several forums (thus I'm not only talking about the Plus! forums, but about every messenger related forum in existance) many people still believe in such open window notifiers.
3) People will too often post "wow thanks, works perfectly" while they didn't tested it at all (happens in A LOT of other threads too btw, but it's hard to proof of course).

All of "us" who already where serious into development back then when the notifiers actually did work, have experienced first-hand that educating people on this subject is NOT easy at all. In fact, this recent upspring of this issue has prooven that once again. If it was 'easy' to convince people about this, nobody would even think about asking for a open window notifier anymore. If it was 'easy' we wouldn't be here discussion this...
What do you think I tried to do in that other thread? But noooooooo, if someone even tries to educate people and say why something doesn't work, all of you start calling them a lier, full of BS and what not... yeah, sure it's easy....

I'm not laughing at this, nor was this script made with my knowledge or even with the slithest suggestion from my side! I have absolutely nothing todo with this... Who is being biased you said?....

So in the end: If you want it, make it yourself or find someone who wants to spend time in making it for you. Lots of info about packet sniffing on various messenger related forums, including source code, etc...
And before you repeat yourself, let me do it for you:
"For the love of everything that's secret, I'll shut up now"....
