Moving a computer? Changing settings?

[clay]

Hey guys! I have to move in a few months, and I was wondering if that when I moved it, it would change all my settings for AIM, MSN, MySpace, etc., back to the original settings?

Like, will it also remove the blocked people, and who can contact me settings?

Moving will not change any of your instant messaging contacts, everything is stored on their servers, not on your machine.

if you think of a laptops they can move around all the time so no you don't need to worry about changing settings

So, my blocking users settings wont change on AIM or Myspace if I unplug my computer?

 

[johnb35]

No, like I said, all your blocks, contacts, etc are stored on their servers.

Very cool. Thanks!

What if it crashes? Same deal?

If your computer crashes, its the same answer. I still have my blocks and stuff from no matter what computer i access my messengers from. Stop worrying about it.

Nothing change in your computer when you unplug it. Everything is either stored locally on the hard drive (which is non-volatile), or on remote servers (such as AIM and such).
