Dear All

After several years of being broken into after using ICQ and IRC I now
run several security apps which tell me when someone is having a go at
me - yet again.

For some reason the ICQ people who I think are AOL are particularly
bad when it comes to network security.  The other day I thought I'd
have a quick look into ICQ on Linux and tried to connect to their
server with Kicq.  Here's a small part of /var/log/messages that you
can see below.  It may well be that this is the ICQ server trying to
authenticate something with my machine.  However, anything of this
sort is best discouraged or disabled over a network if it can be
done.........
