    I have tried both rules and nothing! My AIM rule works great but not the
    MSN Messenger!

    Would the version of MSN have anything to do with how well the rule works?
    I remember an older version of snort would log MSN chat no problems...

    anyways, thanks for any suggestions!

    These are the same signature, except the "official one" is a bit less
    crappy.
    (Its still crappy and needs revisited, but less so)

    "|746578742F706C61696E|" transates to "text/plain". The original content is
    much harder to read than the plain ascii version. The "official" rule also
    uses
    flow instead of flags. I'll look at MSN messenger tonight and see what I
    can
    come up with.
