I tried doing the steps you give, and it gets removed. However, when I sign
out and sign back in, the custom emoticon is there again. It's driving me
nuts because the shortcut for the emoticon is the letter a and the image
isn't set, so whenever I type a message for friends, all my a's are missing.
I don't even know how that custom emoticon got set because i don't remember
setting any custom emoticons. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
