3.1 Beta Build 114 (Feb 7, 2005)
This is a sad tale I met Trillian 0.74D on-line - it was love at first byte, everyday I would take her out, she always loaded for me - and we never crashed without rebooting aftewards - and we always worked well together.
I have to confess when Trillina 3.0 beta first showed up I initially smitten by her sheer sexiness ... there was no comparison to my 'reliable old' Trilly 0.74D - and one day I downloaded the younger Basic 3.0 ...
Now I am stuck with this version - she crashes all the time - won't re-skin, she recognise any of those skimpy, slinky plugins 0.74D did ...
One day 3.0 crashed on me and 'Doctor Watson' advised me to consider reinstalling with 0.74 ..
I have searched every sleazy software site, every freeware webpage and I went on a massive network trawl ... Germany, Netherlands, Spain, even Russia - with luck. I have even been tempted to download Trillian Pro, but I'd still miss 0.74D.
3.0 and I well we crashed yet again, I reluctantly indulged in a bit of manual disonnection. I would reinstall 3.0 yet again - if I thought it would do any good, but I know will never love Basic 3.0 the way I did 0.74.
If you have Trillian 0.74D cherish her, keep away from free 'uncomplicated' downloads and youinger improved 'upgrades' - once you've 'interfaced' with another version you can never turn back the CPU clock and make 0.74 once more your default setting.
If never realised they were planning to axe Version 0.74 if I had I would have never have entertained Basic 3.0
