I know that you can show what you’re listening to in Windows Media Player by going to Tools > Plug-ins > Windows Live Messenger Music Plugin But how do you do this when listening to a song in iTunes? I have iTunes 8 and the newest WLM.. Please help!

Windows Live Messenger 2009 (and previous versions) will display the song you´re listening to in whatever program you have set as your Default Audio Player in Default Programs under Windows Control Panel.
So go there and make sure you have iTunes selected to play all files it can.

Judging by what you said, you might want to first try uninstalling and reinstalling Windows Live Messenger. Try that, then re-try syncing your iTunes with your Windows Live Messenger.
If that doesn’t work, then I’d try the following:
Click on START > Click on CONTROL PANEL > Click on CLASSIC VIEW > Click on DEFAULT PROGRAMS > Click on SET DEFAULT PROGRAMS. From there you can select iTunes from the menu on the left and click the “Set this program as default” on the right-hand side. This should, in most cases work around any problems with syncing the two.
Your first problem is your horrible taste in software
second, trust me, no-one cares what your listening too

Good luck.
You can get the NowWatching, plugin. You should google it!
