MSN buddy icon HTML link?

Question

I have a website with a link to a custom made MSN buddy icon. I want to know what the link to automatically use it as your icon is. I know the AIM link is this:


So, do I just substitute "msn" for "aim" above?

Answer 1

aim:BuddyIcon sounds like the about:blank page in internet explorer.

aim: must be registered in your PC as a protocol that can be used with your browser (like http:). Putting a reference to it on a website would be useless except for anyone that was looking at your website using your PC.
