Not sure if this may actually help, but I remember one of the most popular downloads for MSN (Messenger Plus) has the ability to make the nick change to stuff like "Listening to <fill in whatever Winamp is playing>" and more useless things. If a lot of msn users on ones contact list use that, that would generate *some* extra traffic atleast. This could account for quite heavy traffic if one has a lot of MSN users on his server.

No, that's definitely not the problem. All that happens when an MSN user changes their nick (or all that's supposed to happen) is a <presence to="[EMAIL PROTECTED]"><status>MSN nickname</status></presence>

I agree with you entirely, I really dislike the official MSN client, with one of the main reasons being because of the nickname thing. But it's sometimes important to be able to see what people have as their nicknames, so it's mapped to a status message. Which is pretty much what most MSNers use it for anyway.
