There are a few small differences in MSN P7 and P8, but the big thing is SSL
for authentication.

I have a Java Libraray that supports MSN P8, ICQ and AIM for JDK1.3 and
higher at http://sourceforge.net/projects/miu The license is Apache style.
Could help build the transport if you need it or feel feel free to borrow
from or integrate the library.

hope this is useful,

Harmeet
