753414 2009-03-04 08:11:00 Using ICQ Pro 2003b to chat with an overseas friend. Having been away for a few weeks decided to catch up at tried to chat but the screen came up Chat Connection Lost even before it connected. No changes have been made to either puter or programme as far as I know. Would this be a case of the servers being down or what might the problem be? smurf (6545)
753415 2009-03-04 08:15:00 Is it up to date?

Uninstall it then download the latest version, then reinstall it

753417 2009-03-04 08:22:00 The latest versions of ICQ are crap - in my opinion.

I had some issues last week when my History file being too large :(

I just saved the file under a different name (Historyold) and reinstalled ICQ2003a

Everything is running fine again.

753418 2009-03-04 08:22:00 Do you have a firewall installed? If you just have the windows FW, have you added your app to the allow list?

If you have another FW, disable it temporarily and see if it still happens
