ICQ 6 Thoughts so far?
 

My thoughts on ICQ 6 are that it's solid as a rock for me!

Hasn't crashed once... loads fast... responds faster ... it's overall a much better app.

I wont use Trillian or Miranda ... both those apps fail to grab every message that is sent ... I've tried them both multiple times and often there's been a drop in the comms when I've been using it.

ICQ 6 is pretty good :) I'm happy with it now. Whereas, I HATED v5

been using that version for a few months now (invitation stuff), and it really made me prefer icq over anything else again...

It's a piece of shit that doesn't save history for me for example. I used the beta as well as the public release, and I got back to 2003b.

i left icq a few days ago... using mirinda now :)

How strange ... moved all History over for me ... worked a charm!!! :)


Erk... good luck man! :)

i'm digging the new icq 6. :pimp

I do not like ICQ 6 previus version is much better

That's the same thing I thought when I uploaded the new version. I thought I had lost all my history files, and I was pissed :mad:, but to it's credit I had a pop up message come up 3 days after I installed it saying "I had some messages click here", and my all the history from all my contacts loaded just fine.

Besides the first problems I had with my history logs, I have to say it's been working just fine for me.:thumbsup

Why? I know you're not talking about v5 ... v5 was fucking horrific!

I'd like it better than the old one, uses MS Access DB files to save the history...
All the ad configs are in xml (you can remove banners)
I'll post a script that takes your old history and converts to the new one

Using it for a while now and it works fine for me :)

Installing...

Just installed it, a little to early to tell but so far so good.

it's full of fucking ads

I really like version 6. The look and feel is similar to skype messaging now. it looks like a modern instant messenger, and it was about time!

no problmeo here :winkwink:

i will check it out , still have not updated

It had better be good. I keep hearing that it does well, but I had icq in the past and had nothing but problems with it. I'll probably download it tonight anyway, since most webmasters use it to communicate with their affiliates and business partners.

I'll give it a shot..5.1 was buggy at times

So far, so good... I did lose about 100 contacts though from my general section about a month ago, not sure what happened with that...

ha.... mine does the same thing. sometimes it will save the history for some users... but most often, it doesn't.

Piece of shit gives me a prompt with ony a stop sign and wont open
