glc... that's odd, mine is located here, it is under program files (like I said above). Do you know of any reason why they wouldn't be in the same location?

rspassey> I've got an address book in the same location you said yours is in but it's not the most current updated one. My current one with all the up-to-date addresses is in the location glc provided (you'll have to change your folder options to "show hidden files" in order to see this location though). The other location has most of the addresses, but its missing several. It's like it's an old version that got created during a backup or something at least a year ago (on mine anyway).

Ah, I guess this occured because my address book is, well, empty - so perhaps the new one, in glc's location, was never created.
