 Yesterday all of a sudden the ICQ account i use in Pidgin was disabled.
 Tried re-enabling it time and time again. Says i have the wrong password.
 Googleing "ICQ password stolen" i come across several links that are
 Pidgin and ICQ related to them losing access to their accounts to the same
 issue as me. WTF? I have had my ICQ account for over 12 years. Now i F-ing
 lost it. I can't even get it back. Thanks guys. Because of this, unless i
 get my ICQ # back which i doubt, i am NOT going to use this piece of crap
 and spread the word against Pidgin use. IF ...

 i appologize but i am upset because of this.
