Comment (by db42):
Ok, upon investigating this issue, it seems that the ICQ servers would
kick the client if he would send an MD5 auth request (which uses FLAP type
2) before sending a regular message of any type on the LOGIN channel (FLAP
type 1).
My patch sends an empty FLAP type 1 message and only then sends the
regular AIM MD5 auth mechanizm as used before, this way ICQ doesn't kick
us directly, and the login works when disabling ICQ XOR support.
