How to using C# socket programming to communicate IM like AIM, MSN ...

[fAnSKyer/C# newbie]

Hi, I recently want to write a program in C# which can send Messages
via AIM or MSN, or ICQ ~~ I am wonder if it is possible? Or these IMs
provided any API's so that we can program?


Thanks a lot

Cheers

Hello fAnSKyer/C# newbie,

ICQ uses "OSCAR protol" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OSCAR_protocol and it's
implemented on C# in OscarLib: http://oscarlib.bountysource.com/
