    Anyone else having issues with ICQ

    All of a sudden I got disconnected and now I can't log in. I've gone through the process of resetting my password "successfully" three times now but it still doesn't work. Their site isn't much help either.

    I use Adium, but I've also tried with iChat and I can't log in through either so I'm assuming it's an ICQ issue.

    If you have had this issue and can help out it would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks

              I couldn't do a search using ICQ numbers. It kept saying No Matches Found for 2 days. I wish I never upgraded. Lost all of my History too. Anybody know how to retrieve history from an older ICQ version? I am using 7.2. WAS 6.5 for the longest.

                              It is some update on ICQ side. Try to change server to login.icq.com in your client.

                                  I checked for that first - had same cache all day, but I just checked, and have a new IP address for it, now.

                                                          Didn't change anything, but it's working now anyway.

                                                              I use pidgin, had the same problem this morning and updated to this server and it worked fine.

                                                              For some reason it was showing the AOL IM server name. So it seems this is an issue with 3rd party IM software deleting the correct ICQ server name.

                                                                  When I logged out of ICQ 6.5 an hour ago, it failed to quit properly. Then when I just logged back in and answered NO to the "do you want to upgrade ICQ?" question 4 times, it downloaded the fucking upgrade anyway and then wanted me to click to install it now. Of course even if you say NO, it'll install it the next restart anyway.

                                                                  What I did is navigate to programfiles/icq6.5/Upgrade and delete the upgrade file, then I made the folder hidden and read only. This might work to prevent forced upgrades. More likely if you dont want to upgrade, you'll need to delete the upgrade file each time it downloads before you start up icq.

                                                                  I really hate the forced bullshit which will include forced bookmarks, forced desktop icons, forced aol install.. all kinds of forced shit that no human on any planet would want.

                                                                  If you use a third party program to connect to icq, no doubt you're having trouble because ICQ is trying to force itself into you.
