A. To enable your current music to show as your personal message in Messenger perform the following steps:

  1. Select "Options..." from the Tools menu of Messenger.

  2. Select the Personal section.

  3. Select the "Show song information from Windows Media Player as a personal message" and click OK, as the figureshows.

Caution: This will expose your music "taste" to all and should be used with caution, especially if you're a Britney Spears fan.
