How can i search user profile in yahoo messenger?

I see the yahoo messenger's user-profile folder empty after loggin in in Windows Vista Home basics?

Unlike windows XP, when trying to open the yahoo messengers user-profile folder after logging into yahoo messenger, it says 'its empty'. Whereas, in windows XP there is profile folder with users yahoo profiles automatically created when you log in to yahoo messenger.
Answer:

Do you have more than one Yahoo root folder within your Program Files folder? I do. Try doing a search on your computer for the profiles folder. Every Vista user I have talked to says that they have a profile folder within the Messenger folder, within the folder they chose for the Yahoo Messenger installation. And none of them like using Vista. -Additional Information- I opened a new account so that I could research someone else's problem. I used that account, played around with it, to figure out this question. Turns out that the account sign name folder is not actually created until you send or receive your first IM. It will remain empty if you are not archiving your messages though. So it's not created upon log-in.
