Hi all,

I am wondering if MSN saves my friends’ display pics, emoticons, etc. to my hard drive or not? If so, does anyone know where they would located? My friend lost everything on his system and didn’t have a backup and I am hoping there might be some of his stuff on my system that can be retrieved.

Thanks for any assistance,
Penny

Hi coldrake, and welcome to Bigblueball!

Unless you added some of his custom emoticons, I don’t think theres a way he can retrieve emoticons from you that you havent added them to your list.

Also, unless you used a program that lets you “steal” your contacts display picture, there isnt a way he can have these pictures as well.

Hi princeG,

Thanks for the response. That’s what I was afraid of. Oh well, I guess my buddies going to be getting everything back the hard way. (But I bet he won’t neglect to backup again.)

Fortunatly, princeG is wrong here.

if a contact sends you either display pictures or emoticons. They are automatically saved to your internet cache in able for you to see them.

These can be found using programs such as Stuffplug’s Display Picture Stealer or Sherv’s MSN CE and DP Stealer.

Don’t use stuff from sherv. Here is another program besides stuffplug that will steal the emotes and display pics. Look here to see where the emotes and display pics are stored.
