Well I was going to recommend MSNBackUp (well, you can try it) but I just learnt that:

So the only way you can do it is to go to the location that your emoticons are saved. They are all saved as .TFR files, so you're going to have to rename them all to .PNG, then transfer them to the new computer and add them. That's the only way I know of.

for XP, Win2k, NT:
\Documents and Settings\<windows accountname>\Application Data\Microsoft\MSN Messenger\<your_msn_id_number>\
for 9x (with profiles):
\WINDOWS\Profiles\<windows accountname>\Application Data\Microsoft\MSN Messenger
for 9x (without profiles):
\WINDOWS\Application Data\Microsoft\MSN Messenger
So all you need to do is to copy, save and rename those files to .PNG and you can add them again with MSN Messenger.
So instead of:
Saved CE/DP/BG's => Open another messenger => send to original account => Use CE/DP stealer => copy and add them again to MSN
Just do:
saved CE/DP/BG's => copy and add them again to MSN

My friend done something similar today, made a new WLM account so she needed to transfer everything. Tried copy and pasting the folder to her new email address but didn't work, so she sent me the emoticons she wanted, I added them all, then she signed into her new account and I sent them to her.
