    Deleting ICQ history.

    My friend's parents read all his ICQ history and he got in alot of trouble. There's a couple things I would't want mommy and daddy to see on mine too. How do I delete ALL of it? Everything, every message to a person or from a person.

    my dad checked my icq history before and my netscape history and the day before, I was looking for a game I wanted to dl and went to a warez site and got some pop ups and I got in trouble. And I felt like my privacy was violated when he read my icq history... good thing there is no MSN messenger history to delete cause I talked to my GF about things that I would rather not have my dad read... What kinda things did your friend say that was so bad that he got in trouble...?
    You smell like dookie... No really though.

      You have to click on each person and go to Message History. Hit 'Delete All' and that sends all the messages to the Deleted Items folder. Open that up and hit 'Delete All' to remove the messages.

        Girl things, and about one of our friends is into the wrong stuff, you know what I mean. And we were talking about it, and I wouldn't want to get him in trouble. You can delete single messages, but to delete everything like that would take forever.

              Get used to it. If you're living in their house they can do almost anything they want.

                As far as I know my parents don't read mine, but my friends parents read him and got him in alot of trouble. I wish there was a way you could just delete it all with the click of a button like every couple days.

                  Theres a much much easier way to do it, go into your icq folder and open the database converter, then you can choose how much of your history you want left, you'd probably want no history...then "fix" it...and you'll have you contact list with no histories.

                        No, I disagree. I believe that I have rights. My parents may have legal crap, but if they are going to listen to me on the phone and look at my ICQ history, I am not going to co-operate with them at all. If they send me away, meh, they will be more sad then I will. They can't win .

                        Another thing, does this happen to anyone else? My mom always gets pissed when I don't clean up the house, saying that it's my house too. But then when I want to do something with the house, or my parents get angry saying that it's their house, they pay the bills, etc.? It doesn't make sense, one minute it's your house too, another minute it's not. God, it's givin me a headache.

                            As always, shartley has a point, a long one at that, but a point. But what I was really trying to say is that, I think it is better to give little guidance to making the right choices (to an extent), instead of forcing every which way. I would rather choose my path in life than have someone do it for me. Let myself make the right choices.
