    sure not the best IM client, but maybe useful for not-so-skilled users due to minimum requirements on installation and configuration

    I use QIP instead, because ICQ is just absorbing ressources and annoying with ads and spyware.

    All of my friends use ICQ, so I'm kinda forced to use it.
    I only use it for communciation and don't need any extras, aso it's okay by me.
    It's a good way to communicate when all your friends use it.
    Very popular in Germany, more often used than any other IM.

    icq itself is full of advertisment and very slow. Sometimes its crashing. I got some good contacts via ICQ and its helpful for communicating

    I can´t recommend this. I hate all the advertisement and crazy smileys plus it brought spam to my pc.

    Используйте Скайп, Джаббер, но не это жлобоское гавно.

    I've been with ICQ since 1997, my ICQ number is six digits long and it still works! It use to be the greatest IM program but hardly use it anymore, none of my friends are on it anymore. Everyone is now either MSN or Yahoo.

    I'd like to see ICQ make another run, the unique number aspect was cool, and the interface could be modernized way better than Skype.
