Integrated MSN Hack

Hi guys. I made this hack because I was sick of just having the standard messenger fields, so I decided to make a hack that integrated the MSN Messenger Handle professionally in like the other ones. Some screenies below:

Register & Edit Profile:



User Profile View:



Postbit View:



As you can see this is integrated, and is quite different from Anime-loo's hack.

Install instructions updated!
Extra ability added - View MSN Info in Private Messages

i just enabled the javascript code - and i, too, am getting a javascript error.

Line: 22
Char: 63
Error: Object doesn't support this property or method
Code: 0

Line 22, Char 63:
if(confirm("Add "+username+" to your contact list?")==true)MsgrObj.AddContact(0,msnid);

okay, i've figured out why this doesn't work for MSN 5.0

they clsid used in the javascript is B69003B3-C55E-4b48-836C-BC5946FC3B28, which is found in the registry at:

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{B69003B3-C55E-4b48-836C-BC5946FC3B28}

the LocalServer32 key entry for this points to:

C:\Program Files\Messenger\msmsgs.exe

MSN Messenger 5 uses the clsid of:

F81CD990-910B-4bbf-9CB3-6A77F3D697B3

so thats the issue - its trying to call upon Windows Messenger rather than MSN Messenger. so if anyone knows how to fix this, muchos gracias...

okay, so with a bit more digging an a guy who helped with the original code hacking of the Messenger API, i found out where most, if not all, the info someone would need to use is found. i attached the .js file from hotmail's webpages (you can view source once you login to your hotmail account and search for .js and grab this file, as an alternative).

anyhow, it seems that with MSN Messenger 5.0, it uses MsngrObj.AddContact rather than MsgrObj.AddContact as well as some other things. i've done testing with just replacing MsgrObj with MsngrObj on all the instances, but i ended up getting the same error i got above...

I really like this hack, but I have one problem with it. When a user is registering and then they add their msn username. When they go back to their profile the msn username isn't there. If you add it from in the control panel it stays, but it just doesn't stay when you register. I followed the instructions and I have no hacks installed on my website.

good find

==========
in register.php
==========

find:

,aim

after it, add:

,msn

find:

'".addslashes(htmlspecialchars($aim))."',

after it, add:

'".addslashes(htmlspecialchars($msn))."',

I installed this 3 times to make sure and now all my Online clients, AIM, ICQ and Yahoo are all messed up. Can't figure out if its just coincidence or if something is going on with this hack. I am on vb2.2.9
