Custom tabs development

[Serge Yatsenko]

Hello all,

I want to develop a custom tab for Windows Messenger to show information
from my website. Is it possible? Where can I get more info on this topic?
SDK or something.

Greetings Serge,

Unfortunately you can't add your own custom tabs to Windows Messenger 4.x, the tabs are on
the .NET Messenger network itself, there is no public SDK or anything to that effect.

To get a tab added to the public network, you'll need to fill out this form for more details:

Jonathan,

I've already found out that I can make tabs for *MSN* messenger only. Right?

The tab will be useful only for my site's visitors. I think there is no
reason to fill out this form..

Serge.

Hi Serge,

Unofficially, yes. You can also make tabs in Windows Messenger 5 beta (via registry).

Hi Serge,

It's not released publicly, although there were some leaked versions awhile ago.
