I have long been looking for a solution to the problem of how to use ICQ on a network with private access to ports using popular messenger protocols. Searches led to some solutions, from specialized web services to traffic forwarding through the SSH tunnel using Putty. The solution turned out to be quite simple and convenient.
I have been using the Gmail email service for a long time, and when I found out that this same account can be used as a Jabber ID, I immediately set up my jabber client for this account. It was not possible to completely abandon ICQ, since there were more than a hundred contacts and only five people from the list were transplanted to the lamp protocol. Initially, he used multi-protocol clients (Miranda, QuitIM, Pidgin), and then he completely switched to Jabber, and for ICQ he used some kind of ICQ transports. I also went through a lot of transports, while I stopped atpyicq.aftar.ru . Transport works well with the Cyrillic alphabet, this is a big plus, since it was difficult for me to find a foreign language with normal support for the Russian language. Directly from the Gmail interface, I did not add transport due to my ignorance of how to do this =). Authorized and added contacts through Miranda .
All contacts appeared in the Gmail chat interface in the form of 123456789@pyicq.aftar.ru (123456789 - ICQ user number). Nicky and the information will not load right away, you need to wait. Interestingly, Jabber supports connecting from several clients at the same time, so there is no problem "... under this number they probably came from another place ..."
Google, as always, pleased)
