I was tired of that damn flash ads, so I asked my friend about any other ICQ clients and he advised me to try out Miranda. That's cool prog, so now I'm using it. What choise is yours?

There's also ICQ lite, and other multicients like Trillian, but yeah I also use Miranda for ICQ, it's also great because you can use it for other messngers like MSN, Yahoo etc.

flash in icq lite brinks lots of functions which other icq clients can't like multi-chat rooms and flash drawn avatars

I use Trillian...altough I don't like it for not enabling Danny to see when I'm online in MSN.

Meh, just use ICQ. I'm trying to find something to disable ads on it, though.

.:EDIT:.

@Abi:
Is that why you're never on MSN? Or ICQ?

For those who have direct access to Net it's not important, but to those, who use modem it eats a lot of traffic... well, speed, that's not important. Why must I wait for God knows how much time to see some ad, like "Warsheep online" and other crap?! Everytime (thre is some period) another flash ad is loading. And that eats MY speed!!! :angry:
