i need to backup and restore my msn messenger stuff (display pictures [got hundreds], smileys, etc).
i have searched google and i have found a few programs that back it up and restore it for you, however that is no use to me...
basically here is what happened: my windows crashed and refused to ever boot again. it was beyond repair. i installed a fresh copy of windows on a different hard drive partition so that i may go into the actual files of my broken windows drive and get whatever i needed.
so far i have successfully located the required .dll and other system files to restore things like firefox, azureus, outlook, games, etc...
basically, does anyone know which system files or database files (and where they are located) msn messenger 7.5 uses so i may copy them into my new windows install and have all my settings, pictures, etc restored?
thanks so much
