Is there a way to prevent Gaim from automatically downloading buddy icons upon startup? Gaim is very slow to load from my jumpdrive, and upon looking at the debug window, I can tell it is loading buddy icons. I have about 600 people on my list, with usually around 200 online at any given time. My jumpdrive is very slow to access small files (as most flash drives do, I hear). Anyway I know I can make it not *show* the icon, but that doesn't stop it from downloading them. Is there any way to prevent Gaim from loading them in the first place?

Thanks,

Has anyone had any experience with PhoneGaim (www.phonegaim.com)? It is the SIP VOIP version of Gaim and does seem very promising. Just installed it and seems very stimilar structure to Gaim, it use the GTK common files, and only a total of 4 reg entries. Would it be possible to make it protable?

Also i've cheked out a few other SIP/VOiP software see below, what do others think?

I got the new beta version of Gaim did a fresh install of it on my USB drive and when I double click a buddy to send them a message the default location of that message window is off my screen, even after resizing it and everything it still opens all message windows off my screen. Any help would be great.
Thanx

Also I have 3 monitors and I don't have any issue with any other progams or even the older version of GAIM.

Hello all,

I am trying to use Gaim 2.0 and I noticed they disabled the ability to check "Ctrl + Enter sends message".

I read on the Gaim FAQ (http://gaim.sourceforge.net/faq2.php#q20) about editing your gtkrc file but I have tried editing everyone of them I can find and I cannot get this option turned on.

Any help would be appreciated!

I was searching and I can't find a way to change the font for incoming messages! I tried on the site here, John Posts his way, buy my menus is different. Theres no box in my preferences that say i can ignore the other persons font!. Also is there way to make it so the box blinks at the buttom of the screen when I have a message?

Thanks

I've just started using MirandaPortable, and when i login into MSN with other clients (official MSN, aMSN), my contact list gets imported from the server (college, work, etc), with contacts parsed online/offline/hybridly in each group.

However, with Miranda, i just get 2 groups (online/chatroom and offline). Is there no way to import my own groups from the server, i've looked, but since i'm new to the thing, i could have missed it.

Is there a way to get URLs from miranda to open in portable firefox instead of the system's default browser?

Thanks!

I REALLY need Gaim to go to the taskbar. Any help?

I was wondering if people were able to get Google Talk working with Miranda Portable. I receive a message stating the connection requires an OpenSSL library which is not installed.

Any easy way to do this while still making the app portable? (portable OpenSSL?)

Thanks,
