I recently got a new computer. I use windows messenger connected to our corporate exchange server. When I opened my Windows Messenger, my contacts were gone. I have a backup of my entire old harddrive, and should be able to restore the files to me new machine. I just need to know where the contacts are stored and how to restore. Thanks! >> Stay informed about: Where does Messenger store contacts?
