Chances are they are in your "My Pictures"

Either move the location of it or clean your c:

I pretty much doubt you manged to use the whole of your hardrive up and installed MSN Messenger and other tools. It just does not add up. Either the error message you told us is wrong or it is a bug with your stealer. Now, what stealer do you use. I highly suggest Stuffplug-NG, it requires Messenger Plus! to work which I am sure you proably have already ;)

I used to get the same problem, and I was using SuffPlug also.
Just keep trying - sometimes it works, sometimes it gives an error msg.

Obviously you have more space on your computer than any possible size of a picture, be it even 5MB. Also, when you steal a display picture, youre getting it at a smaller version, so its size should be small.

The display pictures are saved in your Temporary Internet Folder. That is where MSN Messenger (Windows Messenger Live too I guess) saves them.

So to clear up space, just empty your Temporary Internet Folder. Though that means you will lose them all, unless you save them to another folder.

That isn't the issue.

The problems is about display pictures, those are not send by file transfer, let alone that most people know where they actually are stored to even start a file transfer.

Moreover, people do not need to send display picture thru a file transfer as display pictures are always automatically downloaded to your computer anyways (if you have ticked certain options in Messenger). Hence why 'display picture stealers' work. They don't steal anything, they just copy the display picture which is already on your PC to another location of your choice.

C:\Documents and Settings\UserName\Local Settings\Temp\MessengerCache
There the files are saved without extension. These are the pictures and emotions for your friends.(But youll have to view them to get them into the MessengerCache folder)

Edit: To use them open with any imaging program and save it as a gif file.

I know this is timetaking but it the only way:p.
This is just a method using which cedp stealers work not a cedp stealer

There will be one in stuffplug 3 but it can take a while before SP3 will be finished...

RE: display picture stealer by asus_p2_vb on 11-19-2006 at 04:51 AM

it work using C:\Documents and Settings\UserName\Local Settings\Temp\MessengerCache and add .gif behind of them but the image is is small only 96*96 pixel. so how to get the original size picture ?

RE: display picture stealer by linx05 on 11-19-2006 at 06:01 AM

You will have to ask him/her to send the original picture to you asus_p2_vb. MSN/WLM only downloads the picture in that size.
