Greetings,

I'm afraid you can't -- Windows Messenger doesn't support custom emoticons (at least not the
way MSN Messenger 6.x does).

The only way you can really have "custom emoticons" in Windows Messenger is by replacing the
emoticons within the Messenger resource files themselves (and even then only you'll see
them).
