Dunno if any of you have seen this, I would like some feedback. I ran across a windows clone of ICQ called Miranda ICQ, they claim that it takes less bandwidth, and is not bloatware like the latest versions of ICQ we have all seen. I provided the link, here and would like to get some feedback. Thank you.

Link fixed

it uses less memory for sure, but not by all *that* much...the default exe sucked up 5MB of memory, whereas 2000a is using 7.5MB. After I pulled out some of the features I do not use, I got Miranda down to 4MB, there's still more I'd like to pull out but I havent' messed with it lately. On my home pc I use ICQ, but if I have to use a school computer I use Miranda because it's very portable and doesn't load the system up with garbage, and there's no installation...plus when I'm done I can just delete it, so ITS doesn't get angry.
