June 20, 200323 yr I just found a new tab pop-up in MSN 6 today...- removed - (pm me for the pic)To add it to your tabs, go to C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Application Data\Microsoft\MSN Messenger\<number id>\ConfigCache.Xml and add these lines after one of the tabs:<tab><image>http://messenger.msn.com/emotitab/images/hivetab_icon.png</image> <name>MSN Messenger Community</name> <tooltip>Express yourself with MSN Messenger!</tooltip> <contenturl>http://messenger.msn.com/emotitab/emoticons.htm</contenturl> <hiturl>http://c.msn.com/c.gif?DI=2308&TP=http://messengertabs.msn.com/us/MSN Messenger Community</hiturl> </tab>Then you should see that little happy face!

June 27, 200323 yr This tutorial has been quite helpful, thank you.I only have one question (off-topic). Where did you get your skin for MSN Messenger; I'm assuming it's just a Windows skin...I'm sorry, i don't really think i phrased my question all that well...Thanks
June 27, 200323 yr Do you know what the name of it is by any chance? I really like it and was hoping to search themexp for it.Thanks
June 28, 200323 yr what about the ones for france ? i tried but they didnt work, i only got the finance tab and alert tab, i want the others,and expression tab
June 28, 200323 yr We have all posted the tab codes on the first page as well as the expression tab, simply add it to your configcache.xml file.
June 28, 200323 yr I cant seem to get any tabs to display, although the code is all there in the configCache file, any idea where the option to enable them is?
June 28, 200323 yr I cant seem to get any tabs to display, although the code is all there in the configCache file, any idea where the option to enable them is?Uncheck the box "This is a shared computer so don't display my tabs" in Tools > Options > Privacy.
