edd_t Posted July 19, 2006 Author Share Posted July 19, 2006 NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO does this mean i actually have to do work at work now instead of chatting to fit young hotties all day! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mawby Posted July 19, 2006 Share Posted July 19, 2006 I've had it for months now, and it works fine except when I log in at work. It can never download my contacts from work for some reason. I think it must be firewall/proxy settings that are clobbering it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
