ICQ is a program that lets you find your friends and associates online in real time. You can create a Contact List containing only people you want to have there, you can send them messages, chat with them, send files, configure ICQ to work with external applications and more.
ICQ Lite is pure messaging: It includes only the most popular features of ICQ, such as instant messaging, file transfer, SMS and meeting people, for super-quick communication. Because it's so small and has everything good about the full-featured ICQ made easy, it's the perfect version to send to your friends and get them on ICQ. It is a new experimental version of the ICQ software and is still under development, may be unstable and is likely to contain bugs. Contains no advertising. Now you can add AIM and AOL users (screen names) to your contact list and chat with them like with any other ICQ user. Searching for AOL or AIM users is not yet available, but you can post your ICQ number so AOL or AIM users can add you, and to get screen names of new AOL and AIM friends to add to your Contact List.
This is not the ICQ Web-based client that has been renamed to ICQ2Go!

I agree with utomo, ghostt & TheWolf19xx.
I dont like MSN Messenger but ICQ can be better. But I dont think its so bad that it gets a "1".

Need to be improved
I. for SMS
1. It cannot send to Indonesian Mobile example +628128081XXX and other number too
2. There is no character counter.
3. add special character keypad, example the enter (to change to next line)
and others
II. Voice chat if we behind a router using local IP, is not working. meanwhile using YM working.
III. Resources used by ICQ need to be reduced
IV. It need better spam control, and also make user easier to blok spammer, etc.
ICQ also better creating a forum to collect all suggestions from beta tester, and also look at discussion forum in various beta site.

This is the most reliable IM program on the market. It does not have the option of connecting with other programs to IM, like Trillium, and MSN 2 , etc. which is great. I am not sure who has the use for more than one IM program to talk to friends.
Secondly, for the MSN Messenger users , if I wanted an individual email program for offline users I would download an email software. MSN needs to seperate Hotmail and MSN Messenger and give it an offline send feature.
ICQ has always and will always be the best IM Program.

you mean i can have a number assigned to my forehead that appears completely random to me is AND impossibe to remember? how cool is that! This version comes with such great things as "Use Enter key to send messages" ... and to think anybody ever doubted this project should be continued over winamp.
