Warning to all ICQ users!!!

Chai · 11th Feb 2006, 04:29 PM

Apparently, ICQ protocol has been modified slightly, but affecting all the 3rd party ICQ clients like Miranda and Trillian without users knowing!

At first, I got notification that the opposition is not receiving my message. Later I found out that another ICQ has been sending me messages, but I didn't receive any of them! The messages have apparently gone with the wind.

After some research, both Miranda and Trillian has released the latest update to fix the protocol issue.

For Miranda users, please get the latest build here: http://blog.miranda-im.org/

For Trillian users, you can refer to this thread: http://www.ceruleanstudios.com/forum...threadid=78848

I have a few contacts that are ICQ only, and I have no way of replying them or letting them know this issue...

ICQ rox0r all the way!

But sadly, too many people are following the wind. Sigh...

I still like the ICQ 2002a's emoticons very much.

IC who? Nah just kidding. I don't really use any messenger programs. I'm too performance conscious. I might go back to using yahoo or MSN just to chat with old friends.

Performance conscious? Your system must be running out of memory...
