"This page allows you to download the latest versions of the Messenger application programming interfaces (APIs) documentation. Microsoft has developed three sets of APIs that can be used to create custom Messenger applications. For example, you can add images of your contacts or create an add-in component that links to your e-mail system to alert you when new messages arrive." | ||

Write it as two seperate components.
1st part - A simple dll that runs always on the server in the background logged in as your "dummy" user and has a public method for sending instant messages (eg: SendIM) to a user (specificed as a paramater). 2nd part - Some VBScript in an ASP page on your server (or similar) that accepts the users string and executes the "1st part's" SendIM method. If your worried about multiple messages being sent by different users at the same time, have your server app (1st part) maintain a queue. |

COM DLLs are ActiveX DLLs.
Visual Basic just refers to them as an "ActiveX DLL" in its project templates. You can write it in any language, calling it from a script would be the same no matter what language its written in, thats on of the points of COM. VB would be the language of choice simply because it is faster/easier to write this kind of app in VB that in C++ lets say. Although whatever your comfortable with is probably best. |
