Blocking ICQ2000 is easy.

Define a Network object (lets say "NetICQLogon") as
205.188.153.0 mask 255.255.255.0

Then add a rule just below your stealth rule as this

InternalNets NetICQLogon Any (Drop/Reject)

This will kill all access to ICQ:s logon servers, which
in effect will disable all access to ICQ from your network.

  Johan
