Am I the last person on earth that just figured out ICQ can't send links? - GoFuckYourself.com

Cory W · 10-27-2006, 06:34 PM

I have been aggravated for 2 days over it, finally someone told me it was a global icq issue.

People kept saying, "man, I never got anything from you?"

Sly · 10-27-2006, 06:36 PM

I just figured it out 2 hours ago myself. Explained a lot.

It isn't "global." I send links to people all the time.

I sent our designer zip files earlier, went in his office and asked him if he had something to show.

He said I never sent him anything.

Then, when he did, I sent a link of what he made to someone else. They never answered. Finally they said, "So, are you going to let me see it?"

Sly · 10-27-2006, 06:40 PM

Really strange. Baddog just sent me a link fine.

baddog · 10-27-2006, 06:40 PM

as evidenced by the fact that Cory and Sly both got the links I sent them

I think it just doesn't like people that live South of the 110 or something.

PrivateEye · 10-27-2006, 06:47 PM

I get it alot.....

and it is driving me nuts ;-(

BAKO · 10-27-2006, 06:50 PM

if the User does not authorize you he cant see the links

These people for sure authed me.

Granted some of the links I send out are nudes of me, but that shouldn't have anything to do with it.

Imortyl Pussycat · 10-27-2006, 07:16 PM

that explains alot! I hope Mark from CJ reads this

quantum-x · 10-27-2006, 07:18 PM

Seems to be a problem in the US.
I am havinbg issues sending links there, can send them anywhere else AOK though.

TondaB · 10-27-2006, 07:29 PM

I was wondering if it had something to do with Trillian to Trillian being ok but Trillian to ICQ messing up.... Any truth to this?

baddog · 10-27-2006, 07:32 PM

I use old ICQ and people receive mine. I think the issue is with the recipient though.

Rochard · 10-27-2006, 07:34 PM

I notice this on Tuesday morning. It sucks.

We've been getting around it by leaving off the "http://www" part of the link. That still works.

C H R I S · 10-27-2006, 07:53 PM

Same here - came as quite a surprise....

shake · 10-27-2006, 07:54 PM

ICQ used to be great before AOL bought it...

The Adult Broker · 10-27-2006, 07:57 PM

People keep saying then sent me links on icq, etc. never got. and vice versa. very frustrating. I used to be able to send links... hope the problem gets fixed

AmeliaG · 10-27-2006, 08:03 PM

I think it has only been a temporary problem for a few days now (I hope)

Tom_PM · 10-27-2006, 08:06 PM

Yeah it's been for a few days, some anti-spam thing run amok.

ER!C L!VE · 10-27-2006, 08:07 PM

Funny you should mention this. I was just told this about 30 minutes ago by a program owner I was chatting with.

dennisthemenace · 10-27-2006, 08:07 PM

No, I would be the last person - my ICQ account got hacked/stolen and I haven't used it since

E$_manager · 10-27-2006, 08:14 PM

I found it out a month ago. i thought the person i was sending the link was so dull that couldn't see it.

Spankys Teens · 10-27-2006, 08:18 PM

sending a link is no prob at all.
mass mailing can be though cuz loads of people deactivate this feature in their own preferences

Trixxxia · 10-27-2006, 08:21 PM

Same here - good thing that I normally check if people get the link or I would have lost it LMAO

Using Trillian here - but I figure it's a global ICQ thing or newer versions of ICQ.

woj · 10-27-2006, 08:33 PM

yea, same issue here

Good idea

J$tyle$ · 10-27-2006, 08:56 PM

Had a conversation to day and the same happened with them sending me links BUT the other person got MY links

fetishblog · 10-27-2006, 09:43 PM

I'm using Trillian 3.1 Pro and I'm not having troubles sending anthing to ICQ users including files/links/etc. =)

shekinah · 10-27-2006, 09:44 PM

I already figured it out last Monday.. Maybe you're just late.

rick-e · 10-27-2006, 09:59 PM

I can send links to others, but some people are having trouble sending links to me the last couple of days. As Rochard mentioned, if you remove the http://www part from the link it works for everyone.

it is not a live link, the recepient has to copy paste the link into the browser.

TheJimmy · 10-28-2006, 12:12 AM

No problems here but been using miranda-im lately. Did have someone say they were having problems sending out but I was seeing their links fine.

borked · 10-28-2006, 12:58 AM

It's a weird localised problem, because I've been sending/receiving full http:// links for the last few days without any problems...

V_RocKs · 10-28-2006, 03:20 AM

It is an ICQ Lite issue only it seems.. get 2003b

hehe

Cory W · 10-28-2006, 10:19 AM

I figured it out when I send links to nude pics of myself and the people didn't respond.

Rattlehead · 10-28-2006, 02:34 PM

I have been very frustrated sending links to icq users. I use trillian and everything is fine. I am getting tired of sending an email for a simple link. I wish there was a fix for this.
ps. Trillian rulez

teksonline · 10-28-2006, 02:36 PM

in the last 48 hours it starting happening to me too...

Problem has been around for years... its a conflict between different ICQ versions, at least it was. Maybe this is a new problem popping up now.

bknoob · 10-28-2006, 04:21 PM

yes.. use trillian

TeaseumGirls · 10-28-2006, 04:45 PM

If the person ismt on my list i see the msgs but no links, once added i can see links
