IMFriend

IMFriend (Instant Messenger Friend) is a great utility for MSN/Windows Messenger that allows you to hear, via speech from your computer, when your contacts change status. For example, when your friend Jim changes his status to "Out to lunch", IMFriend will say "Jim is out to lunch." When he comes back, IMFriend will tell you "Jim is online." Here's a list of some of IMFriend's great features:
   IMFriend's popup menu
Access IMFriend's options by clicking the icon with the balloon.

  • Announces when contacts change status. You can tell IMFriend which contacts not to announce if you choose.
  • Customize how IMFriend says the name of any contact. For example, you could tell IMFriend to address a contact as 'Mom' instead of her Messenger alias of 'Connie'.
  • IMFriend can read all Messenger conversations, or it can read any message that begins with a certain character or phrase that you choose.
  • If your computer pronounces a name incorrectly, IMFriend lets you tell the computer how to correctly say the name.
  • Comes with three computer voices: "Microsoft Sam", "Microsoft Mary", and "Microsoft Mike".
  • Plus lots more!
