    ICQ StatusBar Icon Disappears When Listening To

    I've just noticed that the ICQ icon in the contact list status bar disappears when I'm playing music with WMP. I have the unicode version of the Listening To plugin and my contacts are correctly seeing my listening to status. If I stop or even just pause playback, the ICQ icon reappears in the statusbar. Start playing music again, and the ICQ icon disappears again. All other protocol icons in the statusbar (MSN, AIM, weather, etc.) remain visible whether I'm playing music or not. Any ideas on what is going on with the ICQ icon? Thanks.

    There is somewhere an option (5th TAB in clist modern)
    "Display X-Status icon",
    if this option is enabled, the x-Status works and you can find Icons below:
    customize->icons->status icons->ICQ->Xstatus ?

    Thanks for the info. I've just checked and Display X-Status Icon is already checked but there is no XStatus section under ICQ in Customize > Icons. Highlighting ICQ under Status Icons shows just the basic status icons (offline, online, away, NA, etc.) In fact, I've just gone through every single section under Customize > Icons and see no XStatus icons anywhere in there.

    Please check if you have xstatus_ICQ.dll in Miranda\Icons. That's the X-Status icon library for ICQ.

    Got it...thanks! Filling in all those empty custom status icons took care of the disappearing statusbar icon problem. I've just found a collection of ICQ extras status icons to use there but have not put them in yet.

    Drugwash, I don't have an xstatus_ICQ.dll file in my Icons folder. Can you point me to the one you're referring to or will the extra status icons one I just found (which is called xstatus_icons.dll) do okay? Thanks for the help!

    you can use the the xstatus_ICQ.dll from
    http://sourceforge.net/project/showf...kage_id=100076

    (One of the ZIP files, in the icons folder)

    Much thanks! I must have overlooked that file when installing originally. They're the same sorts of icons as in the pack I had found but yours are better. Appreciate the help!
