- To switch to the new protocol you'll need to edit the
account and
change from ICQ to ICQ (WIM).
- If you're still seeing the BOS error, then you're
using the old
protocol stillÂ

- Hi Elon,
- I did get the message
last year and did move to the new one. It was
working fine until I closed ICQ yesterday.
- Thank you for the
link. Here's what I did:
- Closed Pidgin
completely
- Downloaded these
two files to folder on desktop
- libicyque.dll
-
libjson-glib-1.0.dll
- Opened Windows
Explorer
- Draged
libicyque.dll into C:\Program Files
(x86)\Pidgin\plugins\
folder
- Draged
libjson-glib-1.0.dll to C:\Program Files
(x86)\Pidgin\
(not plugins!) folder
- Restarted Pidgin
- No joy. Still getting
"unable to
connect to BOS server. Connection refused"
- Starting "Panic
Mode"!

- Hi there,
- You probably got a message from the ICQ
servers near the end of last
year that said they were shutting down the
old service and that you'd
need to move to their new one? There's a
new plugin that connects
to the new protocol and replaces the
existing one in Pidgin:

- Hi!
- Looked at all
the old stuff, and this has happened before,
but
nothing new came up. Is there a new upgrade
for this??
- Pidgin was
working fine until today when the ICQ program,
resident
and running on the task bar, got closed
accidentally. Ok, I closed it.
Forgot it had to be on. So, I get the error
message: Unable to connect to
BOS server: Connection refused.
- Tried
*everything* (reloading Pidgin, deleting
Pidgin, reinstalling
newest version, re-launching ICQ, playing with
the settings in Pidgin,
deleting account and making new -w/same
settings) and ... Nada.
- Under Modify
Account, the server listed is
login.icq.com, I
do not see it
in the list of SSL servers:
- api.icq.net,
- api.login.icq.net
- api.oscar.aol.com
- api.screenname.aol.com
- bos.oscar.aol.com
- edit.yahoo.com
- www.yahoo.com
- and couldn't
find info online to add it for myself.
- So. H E L P
!!
- Thank you, one
and all.
- Angel
