With MSN Messenger 6.2's "new" feature, you can see the emoticons in real time when you type their codes. But hey, have you ever wonder how to see in real time then? Obviously typing <:o) sequentially doesn't work, because Messenger replaces :o with immediately when you type them and so it looks like <) . If you really want to know a workaround, here it is...
1. Type <o) first
2. Between the < and o, insert a : . Bingo!

Oh......Choli is right, sorry for that...I need to edit my previous post. If so, this post may be a little bit useful...I want to move this thread to M/W Messenger, would you agree with me?
The reason why it doesn't work is, when Messenger "interpretes" :o into , it internally makes it :-O. Of course, <:-O) wouldn't result in .

make an off-switch for this *beeping* "feature"...
I agree on M$ making an option to disable that, but imo i don't think it's a *beeping* feature. In some way, i'm happy with it and like it.
