This is why I stay away from anything having to do with Yahoo. I'm a firm believer they either sell their email addresses or make them easily available to those types of places.

Yahoo's IM will allow you to send offline messages. The only problem I had with ICQ was a constant barrage of smut that I wasn't interested in. It seems ICQ is often used for mass mailings of links to porn sites, and I've got a curious-enough teenaged son...don't want to add fuel to the fire.
