The lists are stored in buddies.xml in your trillian user directory (program files\trillian\users\default for me).. so just copy them over to the other computer

Depending on where your data is stored, just check out the buddies.xml file in your Trillian Data -> Users -> username directory. Usually like C:\Program Files\Trillian\Users\username\buddies.xml

ICQ is considered AIM, since, it's AIM... It's in there.

I just needed to transfer my entire configuration from and old machine to a new one.

Just copy the entire "users" directory. from old -->> new.
You would have to install Trillian in the same place/drive..etc. as before. I got this info by searching their tech support and it worked for me.
