Internet Apps Support

I downloaded the updated-yahoo theme smilies. I figures, no problem, just copy them to the correct folder and load up gaim and good to go., but NOPE. Gaim loads up fine, but if I try to go to preferences to change themes I get a crash. Why???
gaim.exe error in modname: libglib-2.0-0.dll ver 2.6.6.0 offset 0004117d...
HELP!?!?!?!?!!!!!!

I'm kinda new to Gaim and just have a quick question. Where does it show the current away status that I'm using? I see the away button and can select the various status's. But there isn't a check mark or anything that tells me what is currently set.

Thanks all!

The latest posting of Miranda, 0.4.0.3, needs a new ICQ.dll to be able to work on ICQ-based networks...

People like me, just loving the uncomplicated way of using your apps wherever you want, and so using Portable Miranda, will actually face a major problem, connecting to the ICQ Network.

The package downloadable here, still contains the old ICQ.dll OscarJ-protocol in version 0.3.5.3. For ICQ having changed their servers on 10th of July, the old protocol is no longer accepted.

Joe@Whale, writer of the OscarJ-protocol says:
"Hi,
I noticed AOL is about to discontinue support for icq5... together with old error in 0.3.5.3 version it is not able to connect... I release new bugfix version 0.3.5.4 - it has fixed this problem and is still based on old code base. ALSO PLEASE NOTE: Development builds has this fixed for some time already."

I'm executing Filezilla on my stick. I'm copying from a remote site to C:. The stick is blinking constantly, probably because filezilla needs access. This makes it very slow. Why should filezilla need access to the stick during this transfer:
remote -> C:? Shouldn't the executing code be cached in memory?

I read something about a version of the portable Gaim which is usable under Linux.

Is there somebody who knows something about this version?
Knows somebodey where i can get it?

The problem is:
A friend is abroad because his Job took him there and there are linux-pc's and no windows-pc's.
He isnt allowed to install any program.

At home (in germany) he uses the "normal" Gaim and so it i thought it would be the best for him to use a portable version of it ^^

Thanks for your answers and greetz

i installed portable Miranda yesterday and today it hangs up on load.
i had the same problem with normal miranda. you can take normal miranda
with you but it will crash because of the *.dat where the contacts and history are saved.
if you make a new *.dat it is ok but then you have to set up all settings again.

i hoped portable miranda would fix that but it won't

I had problems with the PortableGaim and PortableGiMP when trying to implement the "split directory" functionality of the portable launchers, with the launcher displaying a message reporting " was not found. Please check your configuration". This error did not occur when I simply unpacked the zip file from portableapps.com and ran it from there. After closer scrutiny, I located a line missing from the CheckPortableAppsSplitDIR section of the launcher. John checked for the existance of the executable, and set the path if the executable was found, but check for or set the path of the settings folder. Instead, the check for the GTK is there.

I know this should probably be on the Gaim site, but we use skype for work purposes. (when there is no mobile coverage) and was wondering if there was any plans to put skype into the program?!

Many Thanks,

Jon

I don't seem to be able to receive files at all; other Miranda users can try to send me thme, but they never transfer, and Yahoo users (my primary IM) have their file send option grayed out.

I can send files with no problems though. Any ideas?
