Re: [newbie] ICQ reg. Off topic
Assuming you have it installed (if not you can find an rpm from the KDE site for "KICQ" and a link to an icq home page. Select the "applications" link) Then just sign on as usual. It is a little buggy, and not quite the same interface, but it works just fine.

As far as I know, she will have to use a win box for the sign up part. I don't know of a icq clone that supports that feature from within linux On Mon, 27 Dec 1999, you wrote: How can someone sign up for ICQ when running Linux?

If you have Windows I suggest you to sign up with the ICQ for Windows. After that configure you icq for linux with the ICQ number you get after signing in with ICQ for windows Alejandro Arredondo
