RE: How do you export contacts AND preserve groups?
if you use filemon to check out which files are writ too on adding a group you'll find that for each group created there is an individual RSA encrypted file created in doc & settings/user/contacts/liveid/ with the extention .windowslivegroupfile, or something like that, the more peeps in the group the more populated the file.
unfortunalty these are ecrypted to your user account so you can't simply change them, they're also refferenced in the .cashe contacts file in the same folder.
from what i can work out, it's a standard crypt that just groups your contacts in each file. unfortunalty it was an oversite on the orriginal devs not to put the damned groupings in the orriginal XML file used with just the live ID's,
these encrypted files will hold 'i belive' all contact inf about each contact. if they don't and only simply hold the live ID of you contacts then why in the world are they encrpyted. oh well.
