I'm downloading it to my workstation now.  However, I won't
be able to try it until I get home.  The requirements say that
for Linux, JDK1.1.4 or higher is required.  Since I'm still
running libc5 at work, I'm using JDK1.1.3.  

Can you run the demo programs on your Linux box that came with
JDK1.1.4?  Maybe it is a problem with your JDK installation and
not related to ICQ?  However, the fact that they say that it
won't work with JDK1.1.3, makes me think that they're really
pushing the threading capability or something.  1.1.4 was supposed
to be mainly bug fixes and performance enhancements. 

What is this thing that I just downloaded?

Regards,
Craig
