Logging and Filing Trillian IM Messages in Windows Vista

Trillian normally writes its log (which is a record of your IM conversations) under Program Files->Trillian->Users->Default.  Unfortunately, it doesn’t have permission to do so in Windows Vista.  So, in order to actually keep a record you simply need to change the location of where Trillian writes the log.

To do this, open up Trillian.  Go to the drop-down box at the top titled “Trillian” and select “Trillian Preferences.”  Then choose “Activity History.”  Look for “Save History To” and click the “Browse” icon.  Change the location to a place that is easy for you to access.  Perhaps making a new folder in Documents labeled Trillian and choosing that as the location for your logs to be written.
