I wanted to follow up with a thing or two more about ICQ for Mac. The ICQ client for Windows has an advertising banner on each message window. Mac users, be glad you're not subjected to this. Time limited? Why this would deserve -1 star is beyond me. It keeps you updating to the latest version, not limiting your ability to use the product you already have. Besides, have you ever tested the "time limited" feature? :) Delete all, good feature, but for more, go to the message cleanup option. Very useful for cleaning out large quantities of messages safely. Interface woes. It's an attempt to emulate the Windows client. Any crossplatform software package should attempt to look, feel and function identically across multiple platforms. Unfortunately, the interface will always be driven by the Windows side. ICQ will likely always be released as a "beta" version. This falls into legal concertns more than anything else. Public releases are tested, usually stable and should be beaten on by any means necessary. Find a problem? Report it.
