fuck is ICQ ever obnoxious
 

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)

God damn, ICQ even wants to be my default search engine, install a toolbar, and become my homepage :1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh


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

are you on dial up or something?

:1orglaugh

i hate all new versions of icq.. goto oldversion.com download 2003b and never upgrade.. its the only way

well, it works, so far

no, not on dialup, why do you ask?

yeah its annoying but for the masses that's how its gotta be

wasnt ICQ invented in Israel?

god damn jews :BangBang:

There fuckin thing just did that shit to me.. After it downloaded it asked me if i wanted to install.... "NO!"

i`ve just updated and i am waiting to see how many times is going to crush

The early versions were good.. Now it's like AOL..

Works just fine over here.

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? :(

Excellent idea :thumbsup

I have the same, hate the new versions:thumbsup

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.

is there any way to check it for spyware that you know of ?

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

ICQ is like having a kid who always does the opposite of what you say and goes "Uh oh!" a lot.
