Ok need to have a notification on my mobile phone via SMS when one of my msn messenger contacts initiates a chat session. Looked into hardware solution to expensive, looked into programming my own API to time consuming. Is there like a web service you can pay to do this. Very very extremely frustrated, thanks.
