Can you tell me why emoticons do not appear in the
message window of my instant messenger?
- Kalpita |

Certain instant messengers make emoticons optional. Therefore, if you want
to view them, you need to enable this feature.
If you are using MSN, for instance, you can go to the View menu of your
message window and check 'enable emoticons'. You will then be able to see
the smileys your friends send.
