A very easy and simple add-on.
This add-on registrate vBulletin registrations automatically to the Openfire Server. So you can own a Instant Messaging Server (based on Jabber) for your vBulletin Users. The solution here is realized with the User Service Plugin for Openfire . But there are many other Integrate solutions with Openfire. Openfire supports the LDAP authentication, too.
The only problem of this integration solution: Existing vBulletin users must manually registering to the Openfire server, but a import script is included
Requirements:
vBulletin 3.7 (3.6 and 3.5 are not tested)

Version History:
IMPORTANT FOR IMPORT EXISTING USERS TO OPENFIRE, IF YOUR USING THE IMPORT SCRIPT: It is recommended to make a backup of Openfire database and vBulletin database. This Import script has tested only with a low number of users. If anybody will improve the import script, you can make this 
. If you want to test in "local" area, please comment out the line with "vbmail".
Use the import script with your own risk
If you get timouts of the import process, make sure safe_mode is temporary disabled and set max_execution_time temporary to 50000.
After import, reset the php settings.
If you need my help for the import process, donate 30 EUR / $45 and send me a email with
your FTP and MySQL Account-Details. Create a vBulletin Adminaccount for me.
I will make then the import process.

Spoiler (click to open)
So, some examples:
1. I register at a normal vBulletin Forum with this Add-on:
&d=1221959996" rel="Lightbox_1626636" id="attachment87118
Now I get a verify email for my vBulletin Account. After I'm verify my vBulletin Account, the Forum send my Registration Data to the Openfire Server (without the vBulletin Password).
I get a seperat email with my Openfire Account details with a seperat Password:
&d=1221959996" rel="Lightbox_1626636" id="attachment87119
Now I'm registered at my Forum and my Openfire Server.
Example with meebo:
I going to meebo.com and click more networks. Under Jabber I give my Openfire Account details:
&d=1221960415" rel="Lightbox_1626636" id="attachment87120
So Im Log In to Meebo and add a Google Talk User:
&d=1221960887" rel="Lightbox_1626636" id="attachment87121
I have make a dirty @ on the Screenshots because I dont like spambots.
More examples cooming soon.
