Where are MSN emoticons stored?

[WuffRuff]

Everytime I reformat my com, I lose all my emoticons...
Never bothered that much but would be nice to save my emoticons...
can they be saved and put back into a new installation?
Where are they stored?

Go to : Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Messenger\(your nick)\ObjectStore\CustomEmoticons

You can use a special backup tool to save them with ease, look it up on http://www.sherv.net/ in the emoticons page. ;p

edit:
OK i've found the tool, its on this page http://www.sherv.net/backup.html and it will backup the smileys and emoticons from msn for you. I found some pretty nice animated ones on there as well http://www.sherv.net/emoticons.html

hope this helps, good luck.
