Today I got about 10 people on my list that are now using ICQ. Some say they switched because of Msn's problems with Messenger and the service. They also say they want it for back up, incase Messenger goes down.
I've heard and I don't know if it's true but people I know that have had ICQ in the past say it's just about the worst IM out there. It loads you with spy ware and plus when you uninstall it it crashes your computer. I've heard this form many people I know and I think out of about the 10 or so people I've heard this form only 1 or 2 like ICQ. So why get it?
I know I wouldn’t switch to ICQ. Would you?
Thats ICQ 98/99 your talking about.
you should try ICQ 4. most of the features Yahoo! and MSN are adding now are just old compared to ICQ. IMO ICQ has a better search engine and the best spam filter.
