The option to turn it off is somewhere in preference, its called the welcome page or something. I used Lite for 1 hours and deleted it right away. What a POS. Back to normal version for me.

It is in the preferences.

Click Main -> Preferences & Security -> Contact List

At the bottom unclick Show the "Welcome to ICQ Lite" screen button.

BAM! You're done :D

just switch to pro, lite loses too many features.

ussually lite means you get rid of useless features like voice coms, not simple things like send to multiple users:p come on.yeeessh.

speaking of icq, is there an ICQ express like AIM express? I'm on someone else's computer and I don't want to install icq.

I used ICQ lite for a very short time too.
nothing like the original ICQ. has no features and the only message mode is what i hated most about non-ICQ IM's
I use ICQ 2003 and I like it much more.
