None that I am aware of.
What you seek is a web based alternative to a web based alternative… ( No that is not a typo. )
Thats pretty much a zero demand item.

Do you mean web-based versions of other instant messaging programs?

If so then yes, there’s AIM Express for AIM and Yahoo Web Messenger for Yahoo. There’s no official alternative for MSN, although I did find this site… I haven’t tested it so no guarantees though. Of course for IRC you can use BBB’s webchat 😉 but I don’t think you’ll find anything to connect to the other networks (EFNet, DALNet, etc).

NO. What is sought is a web based or non web based alternative to ICQ only, and icq2go in particular.
What actually is sought is an illegal workaround for a legally installed block by his/her employer.
