 Most ICQ clients (including the official ones) publish the "DC Info" as a
 part of their Location info (along with Capabilities). Pidgin does not
 send this information. This indirectly affects QIP 2005, which then uses a
 defective conversion mechanism and sends mangled messages.

 Adding the "DC version" item to Pidgin's Location info would clean up for
 this dirty messenger that QIP is.
