    Does anyone know if I can change my MSN nickname with .NET code in an existing MSN Messenger 6 session? I could do it by communicating with the server but I want to keep my Messenger session running... I have seen somebody doing it with VB5 or 6 but the guy doesn't seem to have any website or e-mail address and VBDE could not decompile the executable. I know the application does something with API functions, to open the Options dialog, change the name, close it. It's rather annoying and I want to know if any other methods exist? Note: I already tried the API, but the property MyFriendlyName is not writable... greetz niels penneman
