where to download live messenger default sounds

bizzare_czar · 07-08-2009, 10:39 PM

I wasn't sure where to put this so I put it here. Where can I download the Windows Live Messenger default sound effects? I have scoured Google and come up with nothing. More specifically, I want the sound that plays when one receives a message.

Thanks.

i made an account just for you.
because i spent a while trying to find them...
the default ones are located in \Program files\windows live\messenger\ *.wmp
the other ones (the ones i was looking for. especialy 'cafe in paris' i wanted to use it but it was to quiet so i had to find the file and increase the volume in a .wav editor)
they are located in (in vista)...
C:\users\(user name)\AppData\Local\Temp\
now the files have scrambled jargon for names but just look for the .wmp files
you might need to turn hiden folders on too. i think the 'appdata' folder is hidden

Hope this helps you and anyone else looking for them!
and i hope this is where they are actualy located and not just somehow in my temp folder.
