MSN Links?
previously posted, out of date links.

I know how to place a link (FOR AIM) on a web page to add my screen name to someone’s buddy list when they click a link. Is there a way you know of to do the same with MSN?

Adding? I don't think so, but messaging is possible from onlinestatus.org

Uhm... nothing about being able to message someone on MSN with a link.. those are just status indicators.
I meant being able to click a link and have it open up a message dialogue, like on hotmail.

Actually, when you click an MSN OSI it should open a message window for MSN. I tried this this morning, and it seems this feature no longer functions, possibly due to MSN protocol changes.

Anyway, there is absolutely no way to add a contact to your list by clicking a link.

okay, I didn't want the add user link as much as I was looking for a "send message" link, but I see that doesn't work either..

Nope, this is due to changes in the MSN Messenger client. This feature was removed out of MSN Messenger 6 and above.
