Power port? Seriously, here's a page which describes MSN and AIM integration. My concern is that the clients described are old. Some have developed Auto-Config buttons which circumvent port closing. It's possible that that kind of work didn't get into the Mac clients. http://messenger.msn.com/support/firewall.asp
An article on clients which have circumvented the port closing security. http://www.networkcomputing.com/buzzcut/020110bc.html Something else you can do is look at the TCP connections info. I know that Interarchy(Anarchie) used to do that. Maybe something else can do the trick (IPNetMonitor or the like.) Let us know how it works out.
