Re: Export Emoticons
Posted by Playstation on September 27th, 2005



Problem though, What sort of Program is this Backup Emoticon/Display
pics thing anyway .. i mean there is no Privacy what so eva, As this is
a shared computer and i do not want other users of this computer to see
my Display pics etc .. and they can just type my e-mail in and they see
it all, You should have to type an e-mail and password in order to back
up everything, or is there a way ?

Hi,

It doesn't work anymore, so it's not really an issue. MSN Backup will however:

Custom emoticons, etc are stored in your user profile folder in Windows -- if that area is
unsecure, then anyone can look at it.
