May fortune be my IM status. (See related posts)

// Tired of having others have cooler status on their IM clients,
// I decided that I shall put an end to that.
// Yet, I am no factory of coolness, but I figured my favorite buddy,
// "fortune" will help me out a little.

// By the way, this tool can definitely be done much better with regard
// to the way it updates the MSN, but hey, I just wanted to play with
// C#. My first time :P

// BTW, the MSN thing works only if you have your MSN not minimized PLUS
// the toolbar showing. (LAME! I know.)

// If you really want to do it right, use http://www.xihsolutions.net/dotmsn/
// and send me the code ;) bhtek@yahoo.com
