87005 2002-10-07 22:17:00 When i get a reply in ICQ, particularly a reply from a sms (text) message the window often reads in japanese characters. This is odd, as this computer is set up in english.

Is there anything i can do to make it so that ALL icq messages are in english, even if they are replies from a cellphone?

The offending cellphone is an Alcatel, and belongs to a person who speaks only english.
My system is win 98SE on a slug running ICQ2002a

87007 2002-10-08 02:32:00 Try ICQ Lite and see what effect that has?!

I prefer Lite anyways, the latest build (Beta 1066) has a stylish look to it!

Hey, it brought back ICQ for me, otherwise, I wont use the thing!!

Anyways, try it out, lemme know how ya go

Cheers

Is the phone NZ new, or was it brought in from another country?

87009 2002-10-08 07:46:00 I'm not 100% sure if this has happened from any other fone or not, but it has happened with text from this fone a few times.. it is a NZ new strait from the shop alcatel. What it sends to my cellphone is always english as well. Chris Wilson (431)
