I am on a Mac and my version of MSN Messenger no longer displays custom emoticons. I just don't get it. I already upgraded to the most recent version so I have no clue as to why it suddenly stopped working. Maybe a bug in the Mac version? Anyone with a possible solution, your comments will be most appreciated!

Sidenote: I already have the show custom emoticons thing checked and what not so that is NOT the culprit. Please help!
