ICQ preferences

[Radar Departure]

In my previous ICQ installation I used to have the screen set up so typing by either person was "live" i.e. you could see what the other person was typing as they typed it rather than wait till they finished typing and hit send.

On ICQ2000a, for the life of me I can't find the option to do that. Can anybody help, please? Waiting destroys the intimacy of chat, especially if you are wondering whether the other person is typing an epic or has fallen asleep :)

Easy, just click on your contact and select "ICQ Chat". Should sort it.

I'm pretty sure when you hit reply and the reply window pops up there is an "options" button. Use of this button has the option for single screen or dual window messaging.

That description sounds like the dual window message. Just a thought, I think there's an option to "don't show this message again" when you first switch between modes, so in case you ticked that option, try resetting to defaults so you get the option back again.

On another note, does anyone else have the additional window for advertising/messages from Mirabilis, which is below the send message window (in single mode) ?? If so, how can it be got rid of? - it's really annoying http://www.pprune.org/ubb/NonCGI/frown.gif

Opps! I forgot to mention I'm using version 2000b Beta v.4.30 build 3141
