Plz Help me out

Simple... don't use MSN messenger.. ... just playing

Or you could attempt to build your own client in PHP, or something similar, not sure as to what would be involved in that however.. try googling it and seeing about java clients for msn, etc

[Note, I don't condone abusing company policy and sneaking around proxy settings, and I won't be held responsible if any reprecussions come from you disobeying company policy]

ICQ over HTTP - can't go wrong.

Here's a couple options, although probably not what you're looking for =)

If you decide to code your own, some of these articles might help you understand the protocol.

Or you could review the code of the open-source project Gaim

I figure chances are your corporate firewall is blocking known ports and hosts... in which case, it doesn't matter which program you use, msn just won't work.

I know the company I used to work for disabled access to hotmail, msn, icq, and who knows what else...

Best of luck though, and if you figure something out, post it here... [be sure to keep it within the internet access guidelines set forth by your management team though ]

my mate couldnt get MSN to work at his office, but somehow managed to get Trillian to work... not sure how, but maybe its worth a go?

I've used the ICQ http chat thing a couple of times, and thats ok.... I think yahoo! offer an HTTP on as well....

trillian is good, i dont know if this applies here, but on my friends uni campus, they banned msn, but it was able to work through an http proxy
