Vista - RE: Emoticons dont work for me

12-11-2007

I can't see my custom icons since moving to a new PC (running McAfee btw?)
and when I try to copy others it only offers select all - other options are
greyed out? Do you know if this problem is being treated and when a new
release might be available?
