Re: ICQ Spoofing Question (or second dumb question of the day)

Quoting Robert van der Meulen (rvdm () CISTRON NL):

Is it possible (with any OS, or ICQ Clone) to spoof being a random
chatter?
A search with almost any search engine on something like 'icq spoofing'
would probably have turned up with the results you're looking for, one of
them probably being a tiny little C source called icqspoof.c .

Ehrm.. I've never seen an icqspoof tool which could spoof as being a random
chatter in Free for Chat state. And that is what the poster requested.

Would be cool though...

But I think that isn't spoofable, since you must connect with the ICQ
server to be present and marked 'Free for Chat'. And to connect to the
server you need a UIN and a password. :]

So..

Regards,
Sander.
