I think you can change in ACP -> Configuration -> Spider / Bots
MSN to Bing

Because Bing is the replacement of MSNbot
But I am not sure about the IP adresses

Thanks for your reply  
I had put in what I thought and they are crawling the site already, below is what I put in the fields.
Name Bing
Colour <b style="color:#468;">Bing</b>
Agent Bing.com
IP 65.55.175.254

The counter is at 42 already

I think they have mor than 1 IP adress, maybe this one too 65.52.110.36

This is the net range of Microsoft 65.52.0.0 - 65.55.255.255
But I am not sure about the adresses you should also insert

Since I don't need to be very accurate in detecting bots, I left the IP part blank (I don't care if any user/guest changes their agent to the one of a bot) and added "bingbot" as the agent.

I've also added mini-smiles that personalize the "character" of each bot (Google has googles etc.) because on my place we joke often on the presence of the bots  

You can see what I mean on the "who is online" module or page of my site.

Microsoft may have plans to stop using the MSN one, but I don't think its been axed just yet as I'm getting it still crawling my site several times a day and sometimes on at the same time as the Bing.bot
That said I guess if they are using the same IP range as with Bing it could actually now be Bing?
