I haven't had much luck with msgsnarf.  It seems the products and protocols 
might have changed since then.

I've used ngrep to snag IM transactions before.  I think AIM is port 
5190.  MSN is a different port (can't remember).

IIRC, yahoo's messenger uses http and is much harder to track states, 
etc.  Maybe someone else has had better luck.
