Backup MSN Emoticons

When you need to wipe your computer, or just move to a new one here's a way to backup msn... well the pictures within it anyways.

Under "Backup your MSN Display Pictures & Emoticons" (about hafl-way down the page)
Download this program: CEDP-Backup-Wizard.zip (do not download the one called CEDP-Backup-Setup.exe without reading the warning later on.)
at http://www.sherv.net/

and then run it, it will prompt you for your username & then a location to download the emoticons, display pics, etc. to. Select a location and Voila! all backed up.

Alas there is no easy way to get the emoticons back in your msn save for adding them one at a time. :(

These are some other utilities. The other cedp one works well for stealing other users userpics... but be warned they come with spyware.

Also this is how you can apparently backup msn, but I've not had much luck with it. :(
