ICQ is a revolutionary, user-friendly Internet tool that informs you who's on-line at any time and enables you to contact them at will. With ICQ, you can chat, send messages, files and URL's, play games, or just hang out with your fellow 'Netters' while still surfing the Net. I feel that if you want ICQ 2000 you can prolly get it from the ICQ page, however I seem to think, as do many of my friends, that ICQ 99b is much better, and also saves a lot of space. I'd recommend ICQ 99b over the later versions.
