How do old IMs get archived, and where? I need to re-read old IMs from time to time.

Help is appreciated. :O)

I'm assuming that you *are* logging IMs.

You'll find them in your user folder under application data, I believe. That path will vary depending on your computer configuration, and whether you're running XP or Vista.

Try searching your computer for the name of someone you know you IM with, and then check that log's properties to see where it is pointing.
