i am invisible the whole time and never get icq spam.
also dont allow your online status to be seen from the web. i dont know how it is done but you can select that while installing icq or adding a new user to icq.
the spammers have tools to check a random numbers status and see if they are online, so they dont waste too much bandwidth for their spam, as there are too many inactive icq numbers.


hope that helps
