Stupid question here, does MSN Messenger store pictures on the computer anywhere? Specifically I'm talking about the display pictures; not the ones I would have put up but the ones someone else would put up for me to see? I looked around a bit, but couldn't find anything.

AIM puts shit sent over it into a folder called "download", which is usually located in My Documents. Not sure how MSN does it, but it should be something similar.

Nope, it doesn't work like that. You'd have to ask the person on the other side to send you it.

Underage, no. Looking for them on the hard drive, yes. ;-)

The chat logs are in C:\My Documents\... (To see exactly where the folder is, open MSN Messenger, click the Tools menu, click Options, and then go to the Messages tab.)

The system-stored files are usually in something like:
C:\Documents and Settings\%username%\Application Data\Microsoft\MSN Messenger

If you still can't find it, then send yourself a picture over IM, named lalala.jpg and search your hard drive for it.
