I started up my ICQ account waaaay back in the days of dial-up and have used it until a few days ago. Now I’m getting Russian spam every day, and I’m tired of it. All my friends are on MSN so I’ll be using just that from now on.
End of an era…
I stopped using it a long time ago, same reason can’t stand the spam.
Welcome to the Club!
I get the occasional ICQ “friend request” Russian spam, but maybe one a week. Were you sure to have “Ignore messsages from people not on my contact list?” or were you just getting more of those than me?
Jeez, I didn’t even know about that setting (hidden away in Identities & Connections -> ICQ -> Change -> Privacy tab, for those hitting this from a search engine)!
OK, I guess I’m staying in ICQ…thanks!
