Greetings,
This could've been a display picture, or other piece of binary data sent through Messenger or
maybe even some other random piece of data in the pagefile. I really don't think you're
going to be getting anything from it. Major props for trying though.
My suggestion for you is that in the future, you use Messenger Plus Live (
www.msgplus.net)
which will save conversations as they happen instead of when you close the window. Then if
Windows crashes, the power fails or whatever, you still have your conversation saved.
