Greetings,
Firstly, close all open conversation windows and then open the main Messenger window (where
your contacts are listed). Click the Tools menu (or press Alt-T if the menu is hidden), then
choose Options, then make sure both the 'Show emoticons' and 'Show custom emoticons' options
are selected and choose OK.
Then open up a conversation window and try again.
