    I finally upgraded from ICQ 2003b

    For many years... make that a decade I resisted upgrading my ICQ. I needed my history. I often go back into it to find shit. Reference shit. Today I said fuck it and upgraded to ICQ 8.

    Very nice. Web ICQ is nice too. Getting on from anywhere to hit up somebody for a few minutes.

        I only use web icq.... can't believe people use this when there's skype and other more better stuff.

                I had resisted that change up until I signed on with MetArt. I had done it once before, and the upgrade was horrible. Fortunately, I had a copy of 2003b still hanging around, and I re-installed it.

                The new version isn't bad at all though.

                      I'm still using ICQ 2001b believe it or not on my brand new Win 7 laptop because it imported all my history and works fine.

                        ICQ should spend about 10K on a programmer to create a script to import any ICQ version database into ICQ 8. Then everyone would upgrade.

                                2003b to me is the ugliest version of ICQ
                                ICQ 8 is actually a very nice update, much better than what they've been putting out in years
                                ......
                                eight,eight,two,eight,eight,four,two
                                ......

                                    ICQ 8 doesn't seem to have ads either.

                                        I have been using some 3rd party ICQ/AIM/Etc for like 7 years now... No problems with upgrading.

                                        Currently using Adium 1.5.4 on Mac OS X 10.7.5

                                          ICQ is so 1999. I have managed to move everyone I care to interact with over to Skype 6 years ago. I just refuse to use out of date antiquated tools.
