ICQ 4 windoos can connect through another port.
I'm currently woundering through the source of licq finding the
DefaultICQServerPort or 5190 (grep -r 5190 *) and only I can find is licq.conf.h
Changing it here /appears/ not to have any effect... :-(
But the next solution would be to route a local port to login.icq.com port 80 or
so, since all ports on that server are serverports. And then set login.icq.com
in resolv.conf with IP 127.0.0.1. This works for me.
Thanks, Arjen
