   Oh... Gods... No.

   If you do this, their damned better be an option so not only do I 
not have to listen to all the shit ppl attach, I don't even have to 
waste time downloading it.

   Ugh... If Jabber messages get turned into webpages, with all the 
crap lamers put on their pages -- useless midis, animated gifs, etc --
I'll stick with ICQ.
