noone uses ICQ, i never said they did

however you can ask anyone at my college what their screen name is and they will give it to you and itll be a AOL screen name 90% of the time

i have a MSN name only because i figured i might need it soem day, havent yet, someone once gave me their SN and i asked AOL or MSN and they responded with WTF is MSN Messenger
