I wanna know whats up. my ICQ starts up but doesnt do anything. the contact list window pops up and it seems to lock there. i can close it and start again, does the same thing. :/ Tried it with multiple versions, same thing. No matter WHAT i do. Anyone know whats up with it? Anyone else seen this before?

Mr. Wilams had this to say about Punky Brewster:
You're using...ICQ?Why?
because its how my diablo guild communicates...
It's smaller than ICQ and hogs less memory, and you'll likely be able to connect (unless it's a firewall or something). Have you tried it?

I hate to sound anal, but really, have you tried Trillian?It's smaller than ICQ and hogs less memory, and you'll likely be able to connect (unless it's a firewall or something). Have you tried it?
Heh. The whole problem is getting used to it.
Anyway... I'd say that sounds like corrupted pref files... Or registry entries. I'm no ICQ guru, mind you, but did it do that on the first time or just started doing it?
and yes ive tried trillian. [ 07-07-2002: Message edited by: Falaanla Marr ]
Get a 3rd party program that will allow you to use icq.

Another reason I cant use trillian: No way to import a 2001b or on contact list.
there is.
you do it when you do the initial setup
When you get to ICQ settings, it asks you if you have a contact list, and you can select it from your ICQ folder....just don't delete icq

it wont accept 2001b or on. only 2001a and previous lists.
Its strange. its ONLY the icq program, but whether or not I do a complete uninstall or not, it still wont work for some reason. I can use the web based ICQ fine, mind you.

Skinning it is a nice touch. And it doesnt have the probs I was with ICQ either.
Question -- Will Trillian auto-update my ICQ list? I know with 2001b and on, it would auto upload thel ist to the server so I could use it elsewhere.

So quoth Kalladar?:
I've had the same problem..started a few days ago. I just deleted it all, saved my contact list then downloaded an older version of ICQ and problem was gone.
Im gonna try that.
Can log on as another user on my system just fine and run ICQ like before.
Checked user profiles, seems my main profile is taking up a whopping 1.27 GB of hard drive space. Think that might have something to do with it?
Any way for me to clean that up, or do I just need to create a new username and go from there?

If you can find 99b or below, then you should be all right. That's when it was still worth something.

And Im not goin back to 99b, dont have a 99b compatible list, so i cant use it again

When I log on my barbarian and try to view the game list, I can only see 4-5 games, but with any other character it's like normal (20+ or something, whatever it is). WTF?
It only started happening very recently. HALP

You shouldn't be so afraid to try new things.
