Gaim works perfet for messages, but it has little or no extra functions. ( no chat function, etc... ) if you configure it using Oscar protocol, using your ICQ UIN as your screenname, and set the login server to login.icq.com on port 4000, you will have no probems at all with sending and receiving messages.

Not true. Open up port 4000. But that might not allow direct connections (chat) but you can still message. Better yet get a firewall proxy that supports ICQ in fully like Sygate.

If you travel at the speed of light what happens when you turn on your headlights? Joe According to the theory of relativity, at the speed of light, mass and energy are interchangeable. Thus you would emit a beam of pure mass which would probably smash you into particles smaller than quarks, The only answer would be to only travel at the speed of light during the daytime. Ivanstein

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.

Re: [newbie] ICQ
Dear Thomas: You can use Gnomeicu in KDE, yes, in KDE. Just type in xterm, as user: gnomeicu -a The -a allows you to run gnomeicu independently of the Gnome desktop. You will NOT see the gnome desktop at all. You can even add an icon to your KDE desktop and in the Properties, Execute box type /usr/bin/gnomeicu -a That's all you need to do. I just tested my copy (in KDE, of course). Works perfectly. I have a quick question. I also have AOL's AIM for Linux. Does AIM allow you to connect to ICU, too, or only to AOL's Buddy list?

I haven't used one myself, but it seems that would be a better bet. Although GNU stuff requires you to read a lot, at least people out there like to work on it, instead of leaving it in limbo like Mirabilis did for its Java ICQ.

RE: [newbie] icq
I am not sure what advanced functions you may use in ICQ, but for me LICQ does fine. It has a few features that ICQ does not. You can spoof messages with it (not that I would) and it always shows the other parties IP even when they do not allow it. You can D/L skins for it and make it look however you desire.
