Whoa; amazing find, although doesn’t seem largely different. They seem to have taken the toolbar from Yahoo Messenger.

That’s the only one I can name that’s only ICQ and Windows.
Yes, set up a Linux box, install CenterICQ, then SSH to your box and use ICQ from there.
Or with Trillian Pro, there is a plugin called I.M. Everywhere that sets up an HTTP server on your home computer running Trillian, allowing remote access via a Web browser or WAP phone.
hmm, coolguy74@hotmail.com or yahoo_guy128 aren’t necessarily more easy to remember than 1939233.
My only objection is that user IDs should use an existing unique identifier, that is, the user’s email address. MSN Messenger can do this by signing up with a Passport. Unforunately most people use a secondary Hotmail address.
The first method works for ICQ2001, 2002 and 2003a, but not 2003b or 2000x or ICQ Lite.
It’s ICQHttp_.dll not ICQHttp .dll
It was my belief that ICQ2003b had optional message global logging and optional individual message logging. I don’t have it installed right now to check.
Here’s a solution.
Instead of trying to connect to login.icq.com with your workstation, connect to an unrestricted machine (via SSH or HTTP), which subsequently will connect to login.icq.com.
For example, I have Trillian Pro running on my home machine with the I.M. Everywhere plugin enabled. What the I.M. Everywhere plugin does is set up an Web server on my home machine so that I can connect to my home Trillian from anywhere with a web browser. So I just point any browser to my home IP address and in the browser appears my Trillian contact list and so I can connect to ICQ and send and receive messages.
Another option is to connect to a *nix box with SSH and run Centericq or Micq or any other text based ICQ client.
Yeah, if you knew which email address you used when signing up for ICQ, you would visit http://www.icq.com/password and have your password sent to your email address. But if you don’t know what email address you used, you won’t be able to use the service.
But try it anyway. Go and enter in any email addresses you have used. Of course if you no longer have access to the email address or if you didn’t enter an email address, you can’t use the retrieval system.
Brian’s suggestion is good, in that you can use the whitepages to see if there’s an email listed. Although, the whitepages and/or client info viewer has a tendancy of hiding the email address sometimes.
Another possibility, is if you still have you own ICQ database files (youricqnumber.dat), then you could extract your password from those files. But I don’t expect that’s the case.

no
ICQ has three options for displaying the IP address:
1. Show IP to no one
2. Show IP only to contact list members
3. Show IP to anyoneIf you know for a fact that your target is set to #2, and if you can detect the target’s IP address, then you know you are on the target’s contact list. If the target’s IP address shows up as 0.0.0.0 again with #2, then you know you are not on the target’s contact list.
In order to determine the IP display configuration of the target there are a few utilities you can use, perhaps one from http://www.ifud.ru/ or Salsa from etplanet.
To find the target’s IP address, again you can use a utility or netstat.
Here is a second method for finding the inverse: which contact list you are a member of. You can read about it here: https://bigblueball.com/forums/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=10444

I think it’s important for the ICQ community to see the spamming software, to download it, to examine how it works, to understand how it finds and targets UINs. That’s the best way we can establish counter-measures.
trying to lead us away from this forum and making us join another eh? Isn’t that your little scheme? :p I’m just kidding
Well… I have a link back to BigBlueBall from ICQ-4U…
