If your access to ICQ is cut :

One of our visitors asked directly to us that "Does anybody know if somebody sets the icq not to work in the network of a company or university, is that possible to unlock it or run it sthealtly by a software or a configuration combination? " So we decided to open this case for you. You may have the same problem at the moment. We are going to share information and solve this problem. Or maybe we can disguss we should solve or not :)

We are not disgussing now and we are trying to find a solution. Everybody should decide where he/she will stop using ICQ. It should depend on the person to use it or not. We will hust make it free. The rest is yours.

This messages came from two guys via ICQML ( icqmailing list ). They replied my urgent mail immediately. I want to thank them again here. Thank you Fuzzy and Mark

 

First Answer (from Fuzzy, E-mail: Click Here)

"The answer is probably no, because more than likely, you are behind a firewall and it has nothing to do with the software on your machine. A firewall is a piece of networking hardware that filters what kinds of traffic can go through. There is no simple way to pass UDP packets through a firewall without the firewall itself being configured to allow them."

Second Answer (from Mark Casale, E-mail: Click Here)

"Try to install it to the desktop. Like c:\windows\desktop\icq. At my school, we can't download or run anything, unless its on the desktop. So we just run ICQ on the desktop. (The files need to be there, not just a shortcut.) "

Third Answer (from ICQ QM; E-mail: Click here)

"If there is a firewall in place to prevent communication, then there's nothing that can be done. It's a hardware problem, not a software one.
If however port 4000 is open as well as other ports for ICQ communication, then the problem is indeed in the program.
In this case a suggestion would be to use an ICQ clone like micq which is text-based and requires little space. Developments are being made with micq and 32-bit Windows OS.
It all depends on what you mean by blocking though.
If it's a hard drive write problem (which is very common in schools), then you probably won't be able to (and shouldn't) install the complete 32-bit Windows version of ICQ on the machine."
