noone knows the answer! pls tell me where the hell are my msn emoticons in my pc? i tried to search them by name but i couldnt find the file? pls help bcs i wanna find them and burn them on disc in order to use them on other computers

Where are my msn emoticons?
They are indeed well-hidden. =)





They should be located in


C:\Documents and Settings\


YOUR_WINDOWS_ACCOUNT_NAME\


Application Data\


Microsoft\


MSN Messenger\


SOME_NUMBER\


CustomEmoticons





where SOME_NUMBER is some random number that I have no idea what it means. The emoticons are saved as dat files. If you right click on one and choose "Open with... Windows Image and Fax Viewer", you will be able to see the emoticon. Alternatively, once you know what kind of emoticon it is (animated or not animated), you may copy the emoticon to another place and then rename it to the correct file type.





Note: The "Application Data" folder is a system folder and is normally hidden. However, if you type the path in directly you will be able to go into the folder. Alternatively you may set your system to display system folders under Tools --%26gt; Folder Option under any folder. Make sure you don't alter anything inside as it may have serious consequences.
