DON'T download the new version of ICQ!
 

what a bunch of fucking horsecock suckers they are over at icq.

i downloaded the new icq, thinking it would be an improvement over the old one. ya know... faster loading, better security, etc.

now i find that this is worse than a virus.

they changed my outlook settings without my consent and i have yet to find a way to change back. now everytime i want to compose a new message, i get this shit automatically inserted:

maybe i should just burst into their head office with a shotgun. :BangBang:

does anyone have any idea on how to get rid of this crap without uninstalling this virusware from my system? please?

Jesus, thats bullshit that they'd do that

Dude, are you on shit ?

format c:

I got the same version of ICQ and it didn't change anything.

that's why i am still using icq99b

I have that version as well and it didn't touch any of my settings outside ICQ.

found the problem

(icq virusware 2002 a)

now excuse me, but i DID NOT ask for my outlook settings to be changed!

Nevermind

Use Trillian.

That looks like a .sig file being inserted. Open Outlook Express and go to tools:options:signatures and see whether there are any signatures in the signatures box on that page. If there are, there is a remove button there you can click to remove their spam.

May not fix you up, but is worth a try.

Whoops, you beat me to it. Good work!:thumbsup

thanks for this info
maybe someone will need it in the future.
:thumbsup

I download it..

I just remove sign.

haha!

whoever just hit me with that bot... do you think i'm really stupid enough to even reply to it?

:1orglaugh :1orglaugh :1orglaugh

Screw Outlook ;)

I'm still wondering how to remove banners from iCQ...?

I tried Trillian but I totally missed the awesome "history" functions of ICQ -- I got so so many conversations saved back from years ago -- really helps me to recover old URL's, phone #'s, etc. etc. when I get a new idea... now I'm a little worried that history is too large though because my ICQ is loading very slow...

Trillian has history also, and better then icq's

It opens a text file for the history so you can find things much faster.

should use Eudora like a REAL man

no doubt . . . . you really have to wonder when they start designing viruses and worms specifically for an e-mail program, yet people keep on using it.
