O.P. Huh?  Prevent people stealing your emoticons
I know with Messenger Discovery Live you can choose the option to prevent people from adding your emoticons, but i dont really want to install that, so im wondering if there is another way somehow, using messenger plus.

I dont know how messenger discovery does it, but what that post you gave the link to says, is that its not possible at all. It is, possible, im just wondering if it is possible with scripts, especially when people make those fancy .dll scripts

Also even if you protect them, they can easily be fetched from MessengerCache folder(%temp%\MessengerCache).

Hence you can't use scripts to do it [Image: msn_wink.gif] (EDIT: furthermore it isn't too difficult to make a script to get all the emoticons used by your contacts)

Anyway, I think StuffPlug's CE/DP stealer should also steal the emoticons for you if you wanted.  Visit StuffPlug's homepage formore information and to download.

In summary, there are many easy ways around any method trying to prevent the stealing of emoticons I'm sorry to say.

Oops you got it wrong [Image: msn_tongue.gif]. We don't want to steal emoticons but rather protect them.

Also here in another thread on the same topic with rather more info Protect emotes?. And you can't say its impossible to add a feature like MDL's with a script. Its just difficult.

Well I was just proving further that there is no way of protecting them and that it is very easy to do (and also to make something automated to do it for you as well).

O.P. RE: Prevent people stealing your emoticons
actually, i recently formated my hard drive, and i used the "Concon" program to restore my emoticons and such, and somehow, people cannot add my emoticons now. There is just a grayed out option that says "Get this emoticon" So im thinking that concon adds your emoticons to your account making messenger think that you bought them, so they cannot be shared.
