This REG_DWORD key will contain the number of times the security message will be shown. This is done by this counter in your registry. By default it is set to 5 and it will count backwards to 0! When it hits 0 the security message will not be shown anymore. Note that setting it to 20 for example, won't do any good. MSN Messenger will automatically correct this and start counting from 5 again.
This isn't correct anymore (well it doesn't match what I see with 7.0.0816). The counter now counts up to 5 from 0. When it gets to 5 it removes the message and stops counting. If you set it to 0 manually it still counts up. If its above 5 it seems to to not show the message. If its FFFFFFFF it leaves the message on constantly (like before).
When you open messenger it gets set back to 0 again. Anyone have a way round this as its starting to annoy me now..
thx,
