Not sure if its still a problem, but licq had/has a history of trouble
creating new icq accounts. I can recommend SIM as a better icq client,
is reasonably up to date and has sms and other features. Check it out on
sourceforge. The other thing I would suggest is perhaps looking at Gaim.

I'm trying to set up licq on a Debian/Knoppix box. Using a 7-characher
password and no UID when toing the initial registration (I have no ICQ
account as yet) I get the following in the error log:
10:59:52: [INI] Resolving proxy: proxy:80...
10:59:52: [SRV] Opening socket to server via proxy.

Not strictly Linux related, but
Anyone on the list got icq running? I've been searching, but can't find
anyone I know who's online :-). It appears to work, but I havn't chatted to
anyone, as there's no-one home :-).

This is very good for backup purposes though. Saves hastling people on the
contact list if you need to do a restore.

yes, thats the point
2/How should it be set up with me as a new user?
not sure if you can. but you can set up as a user on another (windows)
system and then insert the user id and password into licq
I use licq version 1.03 and have had less problems with it than any of the
other linux versions i have tried.
It seems to be compatible with windoze icq, though to get internet voice
chat going, i have used a program called speakfreely.
The easiest way to set up a new user, is to remove
I have used Licq for some time now. The only problem I have is when a new
contact wants me to verify me as being listed on their contact list it doesnt
seem to allow the verification. It is OK for me as the Licq doesnt seem to
need verification and I can add as many ppl onto my list as I
