Publisher's description of ICQ
ICQ 6 provides users with an innovative communication experience and
enables quick and simple interaction among users across all
communication platforms. ICQ 6 offers the entire suite of digital and
mobile communication tools available today, all integrated seamlessly
in a single message window. ICQ 6 boasts an entirely new client
infrastructure and a completely redesigned UI along with a fresh look
and feel.
Innovations and improved features in ICQ 6 include:
* Quick IM--enabling users to send messages to contacts without opening a message window.
* Easy access simple navigation between incoming messages.
* Tabbed conversations--management of all active conversations in one message window by using tabs.
* History--new and improved search history of messages, files, and calls.
* Search capabilities--advanced and easy-to-use search through contacts, on ICQ, and on the web.
This venerable chat client upgrades with a retooled look and enough
Preference control to satisfy even the most obsessive fans of
customization. ICQ 6 includes video, audio, and text chat modes in a
strong push to make the app the most versatile chat client around.
Audio chatting was smooth and painless, although that depends on
user connection, of course. There's also a new Quick IM feature that
allows you to send a text chat from within your contact list. The text
window is only one line high, but perfectly sized if you're just
shooting off a quick note.
Many of the notable plug-ins have been folded into the new version
as standard features. Standard fare in ICQ now includes SMS messaging
and the Flash-movie tZers as well as alerts and skins. Consequentially,
the quick-loading app has a larger footprint. Ad banners are
nonexistent except in the built-in games, and all text chat histories
are automatically saved. Some features, like Push2Talk, seem to have
been phased out of the new version, and customizing tZers is no longer
an option. Also, the Help option is non-functional in this release.
Despite a few minor setbacks, there are too many improvements to
keep ICQ down. Other notable additions include split-screen
compatibility, IM forwarding, and integrated Google searching. In
enhancing its already rich feature set, ICQ has definitely increased
its standing among its many competitors.
