As I just emailed my buddy at MSN, I had another thought.  If no better 
options come up, you could try to get the ip address he is using.  I 
don't use MSN but with AIM I believe you can sniff the IP address if 
you send a file over the messenger.  If you are just chatting, you only 
get the IP of AOL's chat relay, but sending a file is supposed to go 
direct.  So, you'd need a second account, and a sniffer.  Then you 
could send your old account a picture or something and grap the ip that 
way....
