An older IM program. I'd say the first really popular one. I've had an ICQ account since 1998.
...when was the last time you used ICQ? :P

I didn't know what ICQ is, and I still don't know what Jabber is. I think we could remove both and replace them with an FB icon.

Heck, at this point a Myspace icon would be more used.

I use Trillian, so every day. I have friends on ICQ as well as AIM, MSN, and Yahoo.

I use trillian too, though the only Yahoo contact I have never gets on and I've never met anyone who used ICQ and didn't also use something else....

I just remembered the startup sound for it. ICQ99b!

*HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONK*

It also was funny how that it wasn't like any other IM program in that it never kept a window of what you and your recipient said. You had to turn on the logging feature to see that after the fact. You sent a message, window closed and you had to wait for their message to pop up. Good times.

Was there ever any progress on getting the TapATalk plugin installed into this forum?

It's free to install on forum software, you know. :)

I think it would be fantastic if we had a dedicated subforum for comparing ports and multiplats.

Is there some kind of "Price Check" or "Whats it Worth" thread here? There are a lot of times when I would love to see what memebers here would price something at, but I never want to make a thread for one item.
