ahh... you must be mistaking me for a guy with full internet access at
work. truth is I am forced to ssh out (the firewall here allows for
telnet, so I installed sshd on port 23 on a machine outside) and that
allows for micq. the Java version, which I tried in the past, is slow,
sits in memory at 20 megs and up, and could even bring down your
machine, if left up for too long (so much for garbage collection)
