Version: ICQ 5.1
Cons
It's a chat program, though I see very little reason these days to stick with this one. There are so many better designed programs for chatting now. Windows Live Messenger, Trillian Astra, Yahoo Messenger...then list goes on. It was uninstalled on my computer moments after it was on, because it did not life up to it's big name.

"it's all right..."
Version: ICQ 5.1
Pros
everything basic you can get from MSN or yahoo messenage: basic text chat, video/voice chat, SMS messege plus a very nice/friendly interface. supports pc-to-phone calling, and the walk-talkie style push2talk is a handy extra as well.
brand new xtraz which is a online community service offers games, personalized cards and icons, plus few more service/feature you would expect from a popular messaging tool.
Cons
this isn't as near popular as MSN, and the new live messenger is coming out already, it doesn't stand up quite as to the other chat giants.
