It's a bit of both. Historically, all "security" features like this in ICQ have been client-side; including things like requesting authorization from users before adding them to the contact list. At some stage, the option to not let others see your IP address was also a client-side thing; the ICQ client knows the address, but didn't show it if the user requests it be kept hidden. They've been improving this lately, though, and a lot of things are becoming server-side issues, which the client can't do anything about. So to answer your question -- yes, it's implemented in licq, but, depending on the other user's version of ICQ, it may or may not work. Licq can't tell you anything the server doesn't tell it. -- Mike.
