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!
