Hoping to drive users to its new MSN Search service, Microsoft (Quote, Chart) announced it will release a new beta of its messenger client with an embedded search bar. Due Monday, the move signals a more aggressive approach to winning the competitive search war.

The limited beta of MSN Messenger 7.0 will include a search box at the bottom of the IM client, a Microsoft spokesperson told internetnews.com. Within an MSN IM conversation, users will be able to highlight a word, right-click and choose a new search option to handle queries for that word.
