Having Trouble getting URL's on ICQ lately? I have a helpfull solution.
 

I don't know if anyone posted this already.

But while talking to Magnus just a minute ago I realized how to finally post URL's on ICQ even though it's been screwed up for 2 weeks.

Just bracket your URL like emails sometimes do automatically.

Instead of: http://www.naughtyamerica.com

<http://www.naughtyamerica.com>

It will still show up as a clickable link but won't be a pain in the ass for the person you're sending it to to get it.

Is no one else having trouble lol?

yep was having trouble though today its all ok....

thanks for the advice, will try it out

And i thought this was the way to do it (for ICQ 5.1):

shut down icq
on your hard drive go to directory "program files"
then ICQlite
then LiteDataFiles
look for a file called "antispam.xml"
rename that file to antispam.xml.bak (or whatever, so icq wont find it)
then create a blank file called antispam.xml
start up ICQ again

no ?

thanks for the tip !

LOl that must be it.... I had no idea I just stumbled on that... that's why I posted :)


Thanks!

I know people that get sent to Google when they get their links with brackets on them . . . not sure it is a real solution

regular links work fine here today

thanks u are so smart Ace ! Actually i been having the
URL problems for a week and was going totally nuts but
today seems like its back to normal <knock on wood>
