Does MSN Messenger show up as internet usage?

Hi!

I have MSN (not windows) Messenger at work, my previous work group used it
all the time, it was requested by our Director. However, I've moved jobs at
the same company, and this new group doesn't use it at all. But, it's still
on my computer and I'm logged on all day in case I need to communicate with
people in my old area. Does anyone know if this will show up as internet
usage? Like surfing the net would? They are pretty strict about that here
and I don't want to appear as if I am just playing on the web all the time
when really I just have MSN messenger open.

Thanks for your help!
