Msn Messenger 7 and Foobar2000

MSN 7 you are able to set your Personalised Status as a song your listening to, but this only works with Windows Media Player(Surprise, Microsoft endorsements again) and iTunes, as I found out. 

So what about people with Foobar 2000 or Winamp? 
I did my usual investigation tactics and as most people would do is Google.Com something like "foobar on msn messenger". 
Well I decided to Google.Com this search "foobar to show as now playing in msn".
Well the Hydrogenaudio.Org Forums were not exactly a good place to start. But I did find a wiki for foobar with these kinds of plug-in’s, for foobar. 
This LINK was 8th down in the Google.Com listing and it was very promising. 
When on this website I clicked this LINK incase your already on the website, it was the link that said "MSN Messenger 7" just below the "MSN Now Playing", now don’t be fooled by the name, it gives a very good link to a website called UnknownPlace.Org, on that website it is the Top Link for the foobar components. Now this LINK is where it places you. 
On this website, you want to download the "foo_msnmsgr7.dll" link which can be found HERE, but if you don’t want to do all this, you can click HERE and download it from Rctempire.Com. 

To use this plug-in, just open it and extract the files into the Components Directory in your Foobar2000 installation. 

It can commonly be C:\Program Files\Foobar2000\Components. 

Please make sure foobar is closed while installing plug-in and open it up as normal, and once you start playing a song it will show up in your Personalised Status.

Sorted! 

Well I hope that helped you foobar2000 users obtain a song which can be used with MSN Messenger 7 and foobar2000.
