Well I have been looking along time for a fun up-to-date MSN messenger addon that has no spyware and adaware. And I found it!!! The website is called BuddyPlay and here is the link to it http://www.buddyplay.com And to make things sound better... you can play with your friends and if none of them are on your can play against your own buddy agent that is on all the time. Soon even more games are coming such as poker!! If anyone of you downloaded this game then dont be afraid to add me to contacts. Im neon00b@hotmail.com and I will enjoy playing with you
and here are some screenshots of the program

Sounds cool but does this work with MSN 6.x ?
Also if you have MP!3 what options do you have on your "BuddyPlay Game Agents" ?

Yea, it screws up your msn quite a bit though, I can't uninstall it

you should be able to uninstall it... everyone else could.    and the game agent will only play with you buddyplay games

i had 2 do a lot to get this to work
first i just installed and it wouldnt work
it seemed to work for me after a complete reinstall of msn messenger

well maybe u had an old version of msn messenger and/ or firewall

I doubt he had an old version of MSN Messenger and something that screws up when used with a firewall is usually crap anyway...

I hardly think you speak for everyone who ever had it...

Just so I know for sure this doesn't edit the .exe file or runtime files of MSN Messenger does it?

First I'm sorry if you encounter difficulties running BuddyPlay. It's an alpha version and hooking is not a simple task. But I'm doing my best to fix all the problems discussed in the forums.

About your question (editing Messenger .exe/runtime files) -
the answer if defenetly NO. I'm not chaning any Messenger file, everything happens at runtime, by utilizing subclassing, hooking and other methodologies.

Again, I apologize for the bugs that you encounter, and I'll do my best to release the new version ASAP (maybe this week) with many fixes.

It will help me if bugs will be posted on Buddyplay forums, where I have instant access.

Thanks,
Bud

So how does the agent show up on your contact list?

I'd assume he's found a way to do it in the registry...In theory it's possible, never tried it myself...
