Personally, I'd switch to another version of ICQ.  I used Java-ICQ and it
was very slow and buggy.  I've liked Licq a LOT and it's now got just
about all the functionality of the windows ICQ.  No other ICQ version that
I have seen has done that.  I currently use KIcq now because I am running
KDE, but still use LIcq when I need to do file transfers and stuff.  There
were some tricks to setting up Java-ICQ when I did it, but I don't
remember what they were, unfortunately.  Mainly getting jdk installed.
