    Can anyone manage to connect to anything anywhere?
    Are there any set up instructions?

    It will only work with IRC and ICQ setups as the protocol it uses for Microsoft Messenger is depreciated.

    The only documents are contained in the zipped download and within the applications help icons.

    Thanks, I managed to IRC with DALnet & I had one contact reply & a quiz!.
    So it seems to work & be stable. I don't really know where I am going with this. I think it is a "Mountains are there so they must be climbed"
    situation! Grateful of any suggestions.

    I can not get the ICQ side working.
    It tries to find login.oscar.aol.com.... I am not sure that still exists??
    Did the Russians take that over?? Sold to DST for mail.ru then VK
    $187.5?? I did get an ICQ number & pass but from where? or is it built
    into Grapevine
    There seems to be no reference to the servers in boot.choices.IRC.
    It must be stored some where?
    I see other ICQ servers are available?
    The choices file for ICQ in boot.choices.IRC does not seem to update
    properly especially with regard to friendly name.
    Can I change the server? Any suggestions
