the archive it stored in C:\Program Files\Yahoo!\Messenger\Profiles select your appropriate profile and there you have .dat files which are archives....u can read and save ur archive from yahoo messenger itself... then once the archive is opened u can go to menu >save> save it by any name...if u save it in html form u will lose the formatting so better go for txt
