What is ICQ???
ICQ is a revolutionary, user-friendly Internet tool that informs you who's on-line at any time and enables you to contact them at will. You dont have to search for your friends, ICQ does the searching for you and alerts you in real time once they have they log on. With ICQ, you can chat, send messages, files and URL's, play games,or just hang out with your fellow Cyber Friends, while still surfing the Net. It lets you choose the mode of communication you wish to employ. Regardless of the application, be it chat, voice, whiteboard, data conferencing, file transfer or Internet games, ICQ will get your entire message across in real time. ICQ can also be used in a multiple-user mode, so groups can conduct
conferences or just 'hang out' on-line.
The ICQ program runs in the background, it takes up minimal memory and Net
resources. While you work with other applications, ICQ alerts you when your friends or associates log in, this allows you to continue working efficiently while maintaining a wide range of Internet functions at your fingertips. Among the functions available are: chat, message, e-mail, and URL and file
transfer. All of these functions are consolidated into one easy-to-use program that integrates into desktop systems.
HOW DOES IT WORK?? ICQ is very simple. When you install ICQ, the program asks you to register at a server, (which is connected to a broad network of servers spanning the Internet.) At the time of registration, you receive a your own unique UIN (Universal Internet Number). In addition, ICQ
gives you the option of entering personal information along with your UIN. This allows other ICQ users to recognize you when you log on.
Once you've registered, you can compile a selected list of friends and or associates. ICQ uses this list to find your friends for you. Meanwhile, ICQ waits quietly in the background without interrupting any other applications you may be using.
As soon as you log onto the Internet, ICQ automatically detects your Internet connection, announces your
presence to the internet and alerts you when friends sign on or off.
Once you know who's on, all it takes is a click of an icon to initiate chat, implement URL transfers, send messages , exchange files, or launch any external peer-to-peer applications.
(neat huh??)
