TTr's I never see on ICQ - and yet, they asked...

“I wonder where they are - on ICQ, that is... I never see them, they got me by the BIOS, and now, I have a list so long, I can't manage to pursuade myself to keep them on it, if they aren't going to communicate.

Are any of you "out there"?

Do you actually USE ICQ?

Or are you always invisible?”

“What is ICQ?”

“I'm "out there", 'way out there!!!

I've never bothered with icq - any one want to tell me why I should? Is it the greatest thing since sliced bread?

Hey Obi - let's do some geocaching one of these weekends!!”

“back around 95-97 ICQ was the ONLY IM to use...it had great features, could find and organize friends to instant chat with...but then AIM showed up, and MSN and Yahoo!...all three are better in my mind..AOL even owns ICQ now...icq is more technical, and a huge memory hog. AIM is the most popular nowadays..i'd go with it..or msn..or yahoo..hehe..but i have all three”

“Cool.I have aol.”

“Chat with my nieces in GA. But don't always log in. ICQ too.”

“Obi,
Just got hooked back up w/ ICQ Lite

It's better cause it uses less space and is uncomplicated, so my simple mind can understand it. If you send me a message I will respond. I'm don't go on there every night though.”

“Check in once in a while,.. I miss you!”

“Hiya Obi! I almost never use my ICQ anymore.... it IS a huge memory hog like Opie said... I am on MSN all the time though.... let me know if you wanna talk on that! :o)”

“Well, I lost my HD the other evening and with that I lost alot of vital info. I've learn my lesson the hard way, one must back up.

Anyhoot, I was able to recover my old # but I have no #'s for you lovely people on file or I just can't figure out how to recover y'll #'s. Drop me a line, if you care or dare.

My digits are 94876133”

“Mine's 8674309.”

“I'm 159094399”

“My handle is Jenny BTW.”

“lol Nigal.

Ours is 107561441”

“I was wondering if anyone would get that. LOL!”

“867*5*309

too picky by half, I know...”

“666”

“135124439”

“Hey BR! Here's a way you might be able to get them all back, if you're on a new enough version of ICQ.

Go to www.icq.com and then bring up their "icq2go" (which was formerly "icqlite"

When it loads, you'll need to put in your ICQ number and your password. And take this hint: I use to have a pretty long password. It appears they've shortened it up to just 8 characters. AND if you type OVER 8 characters, it won't accept it.

OK, get done with that, log in and your list should come up. Hmmmm, course, maybe you're on an older ICQ version, that doesn't save your list on the web.

oh well..... good luck, wascly wabbit”

“You lost your HARD...DRIVE

bummer”

“Well, apparently it's been so long since I logged onto ICQ I was deleted off the server. My new # is 159164517.”

“I'm not in the habit of loggin on, but that can change. I got used to using yahoo.

ICQ=111275517”

“I haven't had ICQ in a long time. You can take me off your list Obi.”

“mine`s 102403775 ,.. wondred what happened to you Rabbit,..
Welcome back!

Yahoo,..I`m,.. bigfoot0177”

“I hate the fact that with the other IMs you might have to put ALL of them on your machine, like someone else said. That's ridiculous!!

ICQ seems to be one a lot of people use.”

“Done, Walkindude... though you'll be missed.

2269704”

“I prefer AIM over ICQ. I used ICQ a long time, but AIM is so much better. ICQ didnt do anything but take up alot of room on my hard drive.”
