Anyone else having ICQ connection problems? Over the last few days I have routinely lost connection to ICQ and now for the last 30-40 minutes or so I cannot connect at all. I'm hoping it's not ICQ trying to prevent older builds from being used and others are havign this problem a well. I use 2003b :okthumb:

Straight ICQ 2003b. I won't use trillian because I want to keep my mainstream and adult contacts seperate.

I stopped using ICQ because of the same issues. And I know why you want to retain that build.

Spaz turned me in to QIP.

You can find it at qip.ru.

Dont be mad at me for being helpful - I know this isnt Ynot.

I use gaim (renamed pidgin) http://pidgin.im/ and I never have problems staying connected.
