"is there any way to use the msn messenger while in game"
Not at the moment. There used to be an ACMSN plugin, but it required "Windows Messenger" that comes with XP, instead of "MSN Messenger" that you download. I believe that was because Microsoft in their infinite wisdom removed the API from MSN Messenger.
"how do you make it so that you can see your taskbar on the screen"
Use windowed mode, or alt-tab from fullscreen mode.

looks promising..
if that is what it says it is, and is basically a .NET Assembly for MSN access in .NET, it would be trivial to make a plugin which utilizes that "MSN assembly" for MSN access... just have to tie it in properly.

From the site Maddy linked:

2005-11-14 NO LONGER UPDATED
With DotMSN becoming open source a while ago, I saw no point in continuing a smiliar project so this library is no longer updated and I leave it here for those interested in the code. And since this is no longer supported, please DO NOT use it in a serious project because it probably has a lot of bugs.
DotMSN is located at http://www.xihsolutions.net/dotmsn/
It comes with full source code (c#) and documentation plus code examples.
Thanks for getting this far anyway
Looks like the URL they gave ^ is the one to use.
