I don't know why, but I have a hard time keeping this URL, too.

The module supports all known protocol versions, from v2 up through v5.
However, it doesn not support all *features* of the protocol. Examples
include file transfers, and perhaps chat; I can't recall. It is
documented, though. But ICQ 99 does work with it, as I can attest.
Just FYI, though, I have discovered that ICQ works *much* better when
using SOCKS5. All protocol features work, as far as I can tell. In
particular, those elusive file transfers. :)
You can pick up some free SOCKS5 source code from www.socks.nec.com. It
builds perfectly out of the box, and is easy to configure. Here's a
sample configuration (/etc/socks5.conf):
auth - - n
noproxy 127. -
noproxy 192.168.1. -
permit - - 192.168.1. - - -
deny - - - - - -
This works so well, that I now use this configuration (it works
independently from MASQ) for all my ICQ clients.
