I've already converted one of my DBs manually and it's working ok.. I did a renaming on history files, picked my old users.conf and the users info I'm downloading as soon as they are appearing online.. I haven't used icq for a year or more and the reason was that my old DB needed conversion.. It was easier than I thought because I gived up trying to convert user info .. Besides of a lot of people leaving icq for msn, msn way of chatting is blergh.. No offline messaging, people get mad at you if you are online and not answer, etc .. And after all just stupid people with pre-installed windows and pre-installed msn came to my contact list there.. It's great to return to icq and see old contacts .. Jon, you were on my list! .. Where are you now..?! :) [] JA Tavares ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by xPML, a groundbreaking scripting language that extends applications into web and mobile media.
