Anybody still have their old computers laying around? I have a strange request

Hey guys, I know this is a really weird request but I've looked everywhere.

Curious if anybody still has their old computers around and may have the MSN ZoneFriends software installed (I know, random and weird). I've been on a kick lately trying to gather old software from when I was younger and archiving it, but this one is especially hard to find.

I believe it installed via browser applets, so I am not able to find an .exe installer for it anywhere. My guess is that it either came with some games as an installer (Rainbow Six or Asheron's Call maybe?) or we'd have to just find somebody who still had their old computers around with that software installed.

I know it won't work anymore, but I've been especially interested in backing it up. I'd also like to extract the sound effects from it so I can use it for custom notification sounds.

I remember playing Jedi Knight on the Zone with a few members of the 3dmm forums back in the day, so maybe there's still hope out there

Did a quick Google search, accidentally found a Reddit post from (presumably) you.

WIN XP COMPUTER

I used to have a windows xp computer (back when we had a computer room), though my parents gave it away to a friend of theirs because no one really used it.

No worries. I was finally able to find it on a disk for Asheron's Call
