I'm running WinRoute Pro as my internet connection sharer/firewall and also have it set up as a proxy server. I can get on the internet from PC's on the network fine but ICQ doesn't work. I have tried setting the proxy server settings in ICQ but still not working. Anyone know what I have to do here?

I have ICQ 2000b, the latest version I think. I could get it to work when I had zone alarm setup but I switched to WinRoute and now no dice (diff is I'm going through a proxy server now - winroute). WinRoute doesn't log anything saying that it's dropping packets when I try to connect so I think it's in ICQ's settings, just can't get it right I guess.
