ABSTRACT
Personal communications based on Internet are growing continuously, specially using instant messaging tools, such as Windows Live Messenger - WLM. So, forensics midia content analysis needs to consider this tendency. This paper offers advances in three fronts in this scenario: add knowledgment about where artefacts are left by WLM; describes how to recover these artefacts - typically ciphered and dispersed over many points in the file system; and presents WMM, a public-domain Java tool, developed by the author and complaint to forensic methods, to automatically collect, process and show artefacts left by WLM.
