Ever noticed that the hyperlinks posted in your msn chatbox stopped working? Apparently they turned off active links on MSN 2009 to stop a worm from spreading. I got sick and tired of copy\/pasting every single one of the links in your browser, so I went to do some super detective work<\/a> and found the solution.<\/p>\n

1. Download Freeware Hex Editor XVI32: http:\/\/www.handshake.de\/user\/chmaas\/delphi\/download\/xvi32.zip<\/a>
\n2. Close Windows Live Messenger (don’t forget to check the task manager)
\n3. Use XVI32 to open msnmgr.exe which is probably in C:\\Program Files\\Windows Lives\\Messenger
\n4. Press Ctrl + F, choose Text string
\n5. Type in hotlinks in the search box and press OK
\n6. When it finds hotlinks, click on the h and change it to a t, it should now read totlinks
\n7. Press Ctrl + S to save
\n\"\"<\/p>\n
