fuck is ICQ ever obnoxious - GoFuckYourself.com

d-null · 03-10-2009, 05:26 PM

fired it up just now and without even asking it says "downloading ICQ upgrade" and it looks like it is a big download.... I should cancel it out of spite for it's rudeness but I'll take my chances and let it do it's thing

fucking programs that think they should have carte blanche to just download and check in with the internet whenever they feel like it, not to mention they are so fricking bloated in size for the simple tasks that they we have them for (and which they still seem to bug out on)

d-null · 03-10-2009, 05:28 PM

God damn, ICQ even wants to be my default search engine, install a toolbar, and become my homepage

custom unclicked all the above, but I still have a bit of a bad feeling about this.....

Works just fine over here.

AnniKN · 03-11-2009, 09:56 AM

I can't use the damned thing!

When the "install upgrade" notice first came I refused it and now I'm unable to log in (keeps loading, or logs me out immediately) <_< and now that I've given up and have decided to install, when I try to log in the notice is still there and when I click it I just get kicked out again and the notice is still there... any ideas?

icq is a fucking spyware. it changed all google search into its own little icq search without me knowing probably written in tiny letters in Terms of Use or some shit.

Yeah, despite me selecting not to ICQ changed my startup page and altered Google.
