There are plenty of better programs, but all my friends are on ICQ. I guess I'm stuck, so I just use ICQ Lite.

Edit: Also, we chat in Hebrew. ICQ is the only program that handles it correctly. (It was made by Israelis after all)
 
Always... it's the best IM. i never could figure out why people started using retarded things like MSN messenger and such.. they suck quite alot.

ICQ rules!

There isn't really anything extra in ICQ2003a....

I have it now... it's just fine.

besides, ICQ power crack will be out for ICQ2003 soon.. 😀
 
Nope. I started logging into it again once I got Trillian but I never really use it to IM people since the very few people I know that have it also have AIM, MSN, etc. So I just talk to them with that.....
 
I used to, but when you get out of high school, grow up and start making money, its easier to just get a cell phone. who wants to sit at computer all day and chat?

It is convenient when you have friends who live out of town. I dont wanna pay mad LD charges.

I don;'t use ICQ anymore. Last person I spoke to was Soccerman and Budman.

I am # 2104050

 
I think I only have like 3 people on my list and just keep using it because like two of those people just refuse to go to aim. I hate their spam!
 
Trillian, but I use the ICQ protocol. Much better than AOL in my oppinion. I get a lot more spam on AOL than on ICQ, and why doesn't AOL let you send messages to offline people? That is just crap.

I only really use it to keep in touch with people I usually talk with over IRC when the servers we use go down.
 
Used to use it a LONG time ago, but then all my friends insisted on using Yahoo and AIM, and I finally stopped using it altogether. I still have my ICQ number written down somewhere. Now I use Trillian 😀

 
One of the few buddies I have couldn't get ICQ to stop crashing his computer, so we all switched over to Windows Messenger.
