Copy custom emoticons from one profile to other profile

I use WLM 8.1. I use 2 hotmail IDs to communicate on the same machine. One of
my profile (hotmail ID) has some custom emoticons. How do I copy custom
emoticons from one profile to other profile?

Greetings,

I tried using MSN Backup 1.3.2. But it says "The content installation failed.
Please try again later." I tried somany times. It didn't work. Is there any
alternative way of doing it?

Hi,

They are tied to the account. You can't direct copy without manually adding each via the
dialog.

The only less painful way is to use a third-party tool which allows you to log into multiple
accounts at once (Messenger Plus - www.msgplus.net will allow you to do this) and send
yourself the emoticons in a conversation, then right-click each and choose Add.
