Resurrecting previous IM conversations

[Guest]

Is there ANY way at all to get back previous IM
conversation. I have never saved any of my conversations,
but need to get a few of them back. Is there a log file,
temp file, or some place on the internet that I can
resurrect them from? I am using Windows Messenger 4.7.

Thanks!

Greetings,

Conversations are not stored anywhere automatically on the hard drive in Windows Messenger
4.7 -- once you close the conversation window, the conversation (which is stored in RAM if
you're wondering, not the hard drive) is gone.

The only exception to this is if you have Messenger Plus!, a third-party extension to
Messenger installed, in which case the conversations would be located in \My Documents\My
Chat Logs.
