    ICQ - which is the best client in your opinion?

    Obviously normal icq is a huge piece of junk.

    I need a good/stable icq client for windows xp.

    One that keeps good history & of course receives offline messages just like normal icq.

    Please post your suggestions!

    Thanks

      i sort of like the new icq, i was using an older trillian until that pc got 2 old, i tried pidgin, it sucks, crashed all the time, i have the new icq on 2 xp machines running fine for a while now

      the tabs took some getting used too

          I'm still on the 2 or 3 year old Mac version of ICQ that seems to never update.

              I've lost all my messages for the weekend/week now.

              They all popped up blank.

              I know what your saying BV...but I will never use ICQ's software again. So i def need a substitute.

                  Hi, I messaged you a while back after you mentioned in a thread that you might have some work for me, but never heard back. Maybe mine was lost in cyberspace as well? If so, you can reach me via the addy in my sig.
                  gone. long gone.

                                  i just installed 5.1 lite, it looks like crap & its annoying

                                  setting the preferences is 2x as hard as well so far

                                  im about to kill it

                                                  Trillian... used to be a bit clunky, but all seems smooth these days

                                                      It would be great if your contacts used a alternative but icq seems to be my only one
