Pimp my Windows Live Messenger

I must admit I don't spend as much time on WLM nowadays. Is it a combination of Facebook and Twitter?
There are a few tweaks that make WLM more 'pleasant'

You will need:
Windows Live Messenger (WLM)
A-Patch (mess.be patch is not been released since WLM 8.5)
Messenger Plus

1. Install WLM
2. Install A-Patch

You can now check the options that you want

Voila WLM with no ads

You can stop here, to customise further follow the next step


3. Install Messenger Plus
The next step is Messenger Plus, the features that I like the most are:
* Tabbed chats

* HTML chat logging with search
* Use of scripts
