I must say that after having read your weblog post and, specially, Rocky's, I am not surprised about what happened. These days it is very difficult to find an IM client that may not have been hacked in the past and given the fact that <a href="http://www.icq.com" rel="nofollow">ICQ</a> has been in market for so long I am just not surprised at all. I, too, have got a very low number, I probably got it about 7 years ago, but it has probably been months since last time I tried to log in and it would not be too strange if I could no longer access it. Either way, and pretty much like Rocky I guess I have been looking for something else than just IM and the combination of VoIP and IM tools seem to be the good match now. At least, so far and since I got started using those VoIP / IM tools I have yet to encounter the first security exposure. I know they might come at some point but so far so good. Let's see for how long. Again, thanks for the pingback ! Thanks a lot, Cesar, for the pingback !
