Greetings Robert,
It's probably still there, to quickly check, click the Tools menu, then Options, then Privacy
tab. If nothing shows up there, reboot and then try again (trust me on this one). If it's
still gone, which version of Messenger are you currently using?
Also, do *not* attempt to add your contacts back, doing so will delete your entire list and
it will be irretrievable.
