Troubleshooting

I cannot log into my ICQ account after updating to v0.95.5

Go to Options → Network → <Account_name> and re-enter the first 8 symbols of your password (see plugin's page for details).

Double click on a contact in contact list doesn't open message window after update

Go to Options → Customize → Menus, select Contact menu and check &Message item.

If you cannot open group chat window by double click, you need to do the same for &Open chat window item.
