you just answered you own question fuzzy fox. windows messager is in winXp msn messager is in win98 you can download msn messager and use it in win xp the two are different critters one lets you do more things not much but a little. most people do not even know there are two of them out there. i use msn messager i did not change over as i thought windows messager for xp was too much like a school program and since you said she was at school that makes sense to me.

I was about to install it. But then I happend to read some of the agreement, which said it installed some spyware...err...some other useless program I should say. And MSN Plus wouldn't work without it. So I said , and decided not to bother. Besides, my friend said she was at University, with "Windows Messenger. She couldn't have been using anything more then that, like MSN +.

this reply may be a bit late but that seems like the work of msn plus i love this thing its an add on to msn that gives you a bunch of new options for msn such as changing the "Online" tag to anything you want such as "web" that you have pointed out and auto away messeges ... also has stuff like boss mode that hides all msn chat windows n contact list using a macro for those who shouldnt be on msn at skewl work n whatever to meny things to name for msn plus so just best you try it

I don't understand your post. Are you trying to find a certain icon or--???

You know, there's the away, busy and such. But then there's the mobile phone one, and some new one I saw today. It was a little globe (Earth), and I think the name was a little bluish too. It says (Web) next to the person's name in the chat window.
