Hey there guys, I'm working on an IRC bot project, Trying to integrate Windows live into a bot, And have received messages sent to the channel. But the current problem is that the old messenger API that I had no longer works. And the current API i can only find information about addins (complicated for the end user to set up unless I make an installer), Or contact information.

I would like my bot to be stand-alone (no messenger required) and have it log in it self, But I can not find information on the login process anywhere.

Any ideas?

A alternative (until the new API becomes available) is to use GTalk with a Jabber library like Agsxmpp. I switched over to it because the old messenger API wasn't supported.

You may opt to wait for the Messenger Connect API announced last month:

Messenger Connect

Alternatively, the following has some information on how to authenticate:

Good luck.
