Hi,
Since it's XP, you probably have at least 8.1 (8.5 is fine too) on both machines anyway, so
you can just copy them over.
You'll find the files here on XP:
\Documents and Settings\username\Local Settings\Application
Data\Microsoft\Messenger\LiveID\ObjectStore
Where username is your Windows username and LiveID is your Windows Live ID e-mail address.
Just copy the whole folder from one machine to another in the same location (although the
Windows username can be different).
Additionally, some of these folders will be hidden by default. To see them in Windows
Explorer, click Tools, then Folder Options, then the View tab, and then choose 'Show hidden
files and folders'. After click OK, they should appear with the other folders.
