If you are not wedded to ICQ, I happen to like Psi (usr/ports/net/psi - 
thanks to Jonathan Chen for the port), which uses Jabber, an open 
chat/IM/etc. protocol.  Check out Jabber.org or Jabber.com to sign up for a 
Jabber ID.  Psi or one of the other Jabber clients may be able to "do" ICQ 
through a "transport," though I've never tried, since everyone I chat with 
uses Jabber as well.
