Beware of QIP
Hi! If you are forced to use ICQ don't use QIP and tell this story to every your ICQ buddy which you get russian ads from. There is probably a virus or QIP itself which use QIP to obtain your ICQ password and every night when You are offline they send russian commercial to your buddies in your contact list. I'm getting this russian ads at least from five contacts in my list almost everyday.
Me and my friend, we are trying to get know how it works, where is that problem so for now he reinstaled his QIP and changed password to ICQ. So far so good, today I didn't recieve any russian ad from his account. If I will get no ad in next two days, then it seems that it is an solution.
Maybe You're asking why QIP, password could be stolen another way. Well that because every person I getting russian commercial from are using QIP and QIP is russian product so it is possible there is something like fake QIP version or QIP virus which target are russian speaking ICQ users which mostly are QIP users.
