How to enable sound for every incoming message
I get a sound when the first message is received, but subsequent messages in
the thread are ignored. Is there a way to get an audible alert every time a new reply comes in (the way old AOL used to work)? E.g.: Someone is typing a message Hey...I have a question for you... ** Play Sound ** What was the name of that restaurant? ** Play Sound** --- This doesn't happen, and I want it to Using Live Messenger 2008

How to enable sound for every incoming message
Greetings Kermit,
Unfortunately this isn't possible with just Messenger. However, if you use Messenger Plus! Live (http://www.msgplus.net) and the following script, it should do as you wish: http://www.msgpluslive.net/scripts/v...e-Audio-Alert/ -- Jonathan Kay Microsoft MVP - Windows Live Messenger MSN Messenger/Windows Messenger MessengerGeek Blog: http://www.messengergeek.com Messenger Resources: http://messenger.jonathankay.com (c) 2008 Jonathan Kay - If redistributing, you must include this signature or citation -- "Kermit" - wrote in message ...

Interesting product.
Why is this not a standard option? Is Microsoft relegating necessary functions to 3rd party addins? "Jonathan Kay [MVP]" wrote in message ...

Hi,
The vast majority of functionality in Messenger requires third-party tools; everything from a working messenger history, to tabs, to skins, to a usable/accessible/documented API. -- Jonathan Kay Microsoft MVP - Windows Live Messenger MSN Messenger/Windows Messenger MessengerGeek Blog: http://www.messengergeek.com Messenger Resources: http://messenger.jonathankay.com (c) 2008 Jonathan Kay - If redistributing, you must include this signature or citation -- "Kermit" - wrote in message ...
