Adium users and ICQ connection problems

[Simon]

If you use Adium for chat you may be getting an error message telling you that the client version you are using for ICQ is too old.

Here's a link to the Adium blog where they explain what's going on...
Adium blog (http://adiumx.com/blog/) and thread about icq-client-version-too-old-error/ (http://adiumx.com/blog/2008/07/icq-client-version-too-old-error/).

Hopefully they'll have a fix soon.

Thanks Simon. I don't know what Adium is but will check it out. For almost 2 weeks I've been unable to use my icq (that's installed on my computer). It just keeps crashing. Soooooo..... I started using meebo.com to login to my icq but now that won't work either. :(

Just downloaded the update (21328k) and it appears to work fine. Any of the programs that rely on libpurple appear to have the problem. Pidgin, Adium and a few others were affected.

Thanks for the update.

I opened the really old version from ICQ while waiting for an update. The Adium forums got overloaded and went down today so I wasn't sure what was up.

Just installed the update and all seems to be well again.

Adium (http://www.adiumx.com/screenshots/) works perfect.

All you need is a Mac to use it. |cleo|
