1. Intercepting Windows Messages

Would it be possible... or how would this be accomplished?... to get a
program responding for me via the Yahoo Messenger program? For instance, it
would detect when a message comes in and would then formulate a response,
much like kat's IRC bot except this would be with an instant messaging
client...

It's possible, and prolly trivial in mirc. Maybe as easy with tcp4u and Eu. But 
i never looked at IM protocols, i got out of using them when ICQ was sold to 
AOL. But it should be easy. Didn't someone already do this in Eu? Search 
user contribs page for Jabber.

Um...wasn't he talking about intercepting WINDOWS messages, and not IM ones?

The 2 are very different (and the latter is in theory more portable btw).

I don't know, he said IM and mentioned Yahoo Messenger. Why don't you 
ask him? No one else offered any help that i can see. Putting an Eu program 
up as a server on localhost, acting as a local proxy, would intercept 
everything and do anything. Much like Eubot.

I don't think he asked for portability.
