I’ve rethought the image retrieval technique, and the new revamped system is now 100% working. If you have already added the bot and it is showing offline, please just delete it and readd it. Over the last couple of days there have been a lot of struggles, mainly with getting the GD image stuff working, and the change between the “ADD” and the “ADC” command in MSN Protocol 11 from MSN Protocol 9. Instead of encrypting the username, I am storing a username in the database that is unrelated to your msn messenger address. To use the bot, just follow this simple technique.
Add blobsy@brentp.net
Once the bot comes online, open a conversation with it and type “!setusername ” remember, the username cannot contain spaces, &’s, and the other normal items that dont show up properly in a http request. Once you do that it’ll spit out your URL’s. The system supports two image themes. There is the Windows Live Messenger 8 Style, and the MSN7 Style.
Heres an example (live):
WLM:
MSN 7 Theme:
If you cannot get it working, please contact me at brent.pickup[nospam]@gmail.com (msn and email).
Remove all the stuff between the []’s.

Brent
Just the other day, I decided to get AIM. Just a few days after I get aim, i hear that there is a new virus that affects AIM users. This virus is generally a run-of-the-mill IM worm, but it actually speaks to its victims. An example of what is does is below:
Sender:
Receiver: is that a virus?
Sender: lol no its not a virus.
Very simple, yet very effective. Be sure not to fall for that one. On other news, I managed to get ASP.NET working on the server…after a few hours of failed attempts. Me thinks that cPanel needs to fine tune their installers.
