UPDATE: This method no longer works in newer versions.
Did you know there is an extra hidden tab in Windows Live Messenger Option dialog box? Its called "Add-ins". Its hidden by default. But there is a registry hack available to enable it.
Here is a step-by-step tutorial to enable it:
1. Type regedit in RUN dialog box and press Enter. Now go to:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\MSNMessenger
2. In right-side pane, create a new DWORD value and give it name "AddInFeatureEnabled" and set its value to 1
3. That's it. Now open Windows Live Messenger and go to "Tools -> Options" and you'll see a new tab "Add-ins".

I don't really understand the huge hype over this. It doesn't really add anything that couldn't be done by using MSN Plus that's been available for years now.
