Hi Rocky & Steven
Following you find a link with more accurate stuff than on Perry's site:

ftp://ftp.ecomstation.dk/pwicq/

I got pwICQ working with installing:

1) Base
2) Preview over Base
3) icqpm-b3 over Preview

It does work very basically and simple and =

there are some hard to find features ;-(

I dislike these fancyful WINdoof styled design =

and do like much more the Warp4Styled or =

the Nucleo skin as they are much better to read !

Unfortunately one cannot just select from settings ;-(
My approach:
I renamed "default" with "default.ori" and then created =

new ones "default" from the one I choose ;-)

Now I am able to run ICQ under OS/2 again but
I am missing "Privacy =3D Invisible" very much ;-((

Good luck, svobi

The Preview contains the full package. The Base contains just the
plugin
DLLs and is intended to update an existing install.

Yep. Did you get mine?

Use the RMB to grab the border.

It appears to be unimplemented. ICQ# can be added manually to the DAT
file for now.

That's pretty odd since the base package contains exactly the same EXEs
and DLLs as the full package. Of course, if you installed the base
without installing the the full package first, I can understand why the
program might blow up.

>Is anyone aware (Steven?) of the development plans/profile of the

This is question better asked on the support newsgroup or you could ask
Perry directly.

>Is there anything else I should try to get it working?

Define working? The implemented functions work best I can tell.
