method of defence (pre-emtive) use mozila instead of IE and uses Sun micros systems VM rather than MS's but still appy the patches as normal.

Even easier, just use Trillian or Miranda Instant Messenger for ICQ. I've been using Trillian for a few years now.

ICQ was always flakey, thats why I ditched it in the mud about...sheesh..6 years ago? I personally use MSN once in a blue moon and sometimes yahoo which really I think is the worst chat program out there.

Yahoo crashes my computer, and I don't like ICQ.
