alt + 0160 is an invisible character useable in your nickname.

There are others, like a character that shows on your contact list, but not in your chats.

well to make an invisible nick (as evilseph said), Use the code ALT + 0160 in place of your nick... thats it... it will make your nick invisible (actually it inserts a space)... if you try to use space bar instead for space then your nock changes to ID@HOTMAIL.COM or ID@passport.com... Ypu can try using diffrent combinations of keys from 0 to 255 by pressing Alt + desired code... ASCII characters which will be generated by using the codes...
Hope it helps

To use alt codes, you need to hold down the Alt key while pressing a number combination on the number pad on the far right side of your keyboard. The codes will not work if you use the numbers above the letters on the keyboard.

Examples:
alt+160 =*(a blank space)
alt+0169 = ©
alt+169 = ®

You can find a list of Alt Codes here
