I have a problem with icq, when there is a disconnection sometimes it does not realize 
"something" which causes it to try to reconnect over and over without success. When I 
stop this loop by, clicking offline and then online it connects fine (until the next 
time).
The deal is, that icq 2001b, 2000, (n-1) :) worked most of the time with the problem I 
mentioned seldom occurring. Now, however, with the icq2002 it goes into standby mode 
where it should return when the line is up, and it never does unless I open icq myself.
I remember an issue with ipchains about tcp time outs, but could it also occur now 
with netfilter? I vaguely remember they said this shouldn't happen with the new 
connection tracking scheme.
Any clue?

p.s: I tried other IM, but the same problem(though again more seldom than icq2002) 
occurs on various occasions since the design of the clients is different, but the 
problem do repeats.

Notes: adsl, masq, tcpmss, kernel 2.4.4. (adsl works great no problem there for the 
last 6 months), iptables 1.2.2, icq setuped: connection alive, firewall, no proxy, 
determine ip automagically.
