-------------------------------------- ICQ Chat Log File Started on Sat May 23 17:09:03 1998 -------------------------------------- i don't know <&Omri> I think we have covered most of the subjects on icq already yes we certainly have covered alot but Omri is always a good one to have in your group cause he keeps you on your toes <&Omri> Omri blushes I think so too...was hoping to find out more about the chat rooms though How do you reach the bookmarks in ICQ? through Explorer...windows oh Ok...just talking about the lesson...what is it about I had asked how to rech bookmarks in ICQ; the answer was given to me. or is there another one <&Omri> we were saying we sure have covered a lot in this class so far there are other ways too through SYSTEM yes we have.........i've about run out of stuff..........LOL <&Omri> I was wondering about that lol <&Omri> heheh tht's why I am mainly finding appropriate URL's at ICQ now....to follow up on what we've covered......... i've got to think of something for this coming weeks lesson still........rofl ICQ does have a lot of problems still...ones that I haven't got answers too...and AOL has such a 'wonderful' service rep <&Omri> we really made you work this term LOL........it has been loads of fun............ Do you think when AOL gains control of ICQ, our connection to the program will change? No candyman......not really........but it is still a rumor from what I've read <&Omri> no aol likes to give away 300 mil I don't know...can't figure out if it will get better or worse. ..guess we will just wait and see time will tell.........for sure there could be a 'class' on the passing of URLs and netiquette and for people to think about the fact that if they are sending stuff to everyone in their contact <&Omri> thats becuase you have so many people on your llist ttrimm AOL is no dummy, thet will figure out a way to get funds out of the users of ICQ Rumors and multiple sends has been covered but a reminder won't hurt either.......... <&Omri> I send them to people not in icq class that's a good idea Omri I don't send them on to anyone...I like to send URLs...good ones I have over 60 people on my list......imagine what I have been going through......lol and the missing children I send <&Omri> does anyone have a question about icq other than how much is going to cost they are playing music so loud I can't hear my radio in my room! I shouldn't say this now but.............there is a new version out of ICQ for Win95.....I'm not getting it until the class is over though........ not me what is the version number of it?
