After installing jdk1.1.5 (there's a link on a page linked to by ICQ's Java download page), Java ICQ worked. I did notice a few problems, like the lack of a message history function and sending a message to an offline user was taking forever (this may have been because I'm running through a natd gateway, which ICQ works through, but not too well). --Ludwig Pummer ludwigp@bigfoot.com ICQ UIN: 692441 http://chipweb.home.ml.org To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
