Hi All,
I'm wondering "since ICQ seems to be the popular messanger with webmaster and others" I need to save a very important conversation I had, and its not like Yahoo or MSN, which all is needed is Cut Copy Paste, well it don't work with ICQ.
I've just about tried all I could with it, click on history & other stuff, but I can't save the conversation? Anyone know any tricks that would assits me in trying to save this info, cause theres addies & other important info I need, and I really don't want to have to write it out manually, its way too long.
Anyone got nay ideas please?

Erm I use Trilian, not the actual ICQ program...I haven't used ICQ since the early early days of ICQ...Hmmm

Somewhere in the ICQ (I use version 2003b because it is the last GOOD version of the ICQ) look for preferences, and in there you have to select the option to save your message history (otherwise it will not save it) :)

Hope that helps! Its usually hiding in the "Main" menu... I go "Main ->Preferences->History, Alerts & Sounds"

Also check *.dat files like

C:\Program Files\ICQ2003b\2002a\111111111.dat

My history was kept there.
I'm using Miranda ICQ and recommend you to find some other client rather that official one.
