    Help with ICQ popups

    I recently formatted my machine and I forgot how to fix a function that I had before. When ICQ was running and I had an incoming message, this would only blink on my system tray, instead of having a dialog box popup on my screen. Does anyone know how to do this?? I've played with the first option in the general preferences tap in events, but it doesn't work for incoming messages (at least not for me).

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Thanks all.

    My solution is by simply not 'upgrading' my version of ICQ. 98a works good enough for me. If your using 2000a or greater, you can go here to get rid of those pesky banners:

    If its the incoming messages you want to just blink in the tray, I believe you need to go into Preferenes > Events and uncheck "Popup response dialog".

    Hope that does it for ya.

    Failure is NOT an option. It comes bundled with the software.

    The problem I have is not any banners that appear, but the messages I receive from people on my contact list that POPUP. I haven't changed my version of ICQ (2000b) and when I had installed it before there was no problem.
