Thanks for the replies, but let me make it clear what I
am saying..

There is a problem with NAT and ICQ that causes you to
go offline/online constantly, you probably wont notice
this your self if you have a high speed connection, but
trust me its happining!!! (check from another icq client
running on a different connection and you will see your
self going on and off if you dont belive me)

Yes you can solve this with a socks proxy but I DONT want
to use one! I want to solve it wiht NAT...

icq-masq is a kernel moduel for linux which solves this
problem, whats needed is to see what is causing the problem
and write something to fix it like the linux icq-masq...

Perhaps you could redirect udp connections to a certain port
to one machine and it could use icq ok, but this would stop
other systems using it!
