lost emoticons and winks

hi there

i hope someone can help me out with this one please

i have recently changed isp and therefore lost my old email address

i updated my details so that i could carry on using messenger with my new
email address,but now i have found that when i try and use any of my old
emoticions and winks...they have all dissappeared!!!

does anyone know if they are saved in a specific file or folder or if there
is a way to restore them so i can continue to use them

the only reason i ask this is because i had a really good collection,some
were free some paid for and others that you just pick up as you go along


hope someone can help out

thanks very much in advance
