MSN object
Transparent list of friends
Friday, February 4, 2005 by 50outs | Discussion: DesktopX
Hello,
is anybody able to to a desktopX object that just displays the list of online users that are logged in with MSN? There are some great objects that display the processes or memory usage directly on the desktop. This would help me a great deal as I could get rid of the boring MSN window...
Thank you!

It's very tricky to get third party applications to work with MSN because they disabled API access to it some versions ago. However, I have seen programs around that can do that. SmartbarXP and DesktopSidebar. You might want to try to contact them and see if you have any luck.
