Well I started off with ICQ jsut for the fun of it and because it was so popular with my peers back then. But now i use MSN because its nice , simple and modern. The good thing is that the functions are simple to use. ICQ is not safe to use so many random strangers trying to talk to you. Up to this date, my experience tells me that people in asian countries uses icq where western countries uses msn. Hence I prefer msn.

Of course I prefer to use MSN. As there are really a lot of strangers will disturb you when you are onine in ICQ. Sometimes I also think the database in ICQ gets in a mess. As sometimes my good friends will disappear but sometimes they will show up. I like MSN, most of the time no strangers will bother you. It looks professional.

I use MSN, but it always freezes on my machine. There's a software called QQ in China that replaced ICQ as their major way to communicate online.

I prefer Msn messenger live. I think ICQ is to basic and the last time I used it, it was like using mIRC and rather simple and annoying for me. This is just my opinion, ~Joey

I prefer MSN. Although I never used ICQ, I already saw my cousin using it, and I know how it works. I found it complicated, but I could learn how to use easily. Taking the knowleadge that ICQ has a more complex system than MSN, ICQ is also not so popular as Windows Messenger. Those are the reasons of why I do not choose ICQ. I'd pick up MSN because I'm used to it, and it's a program that I know is evolving. Lots of updates, new features, and such things. MSN is already good, but it will get way better!

I've never used ICQ before so I guess by default MSN is the one I prefer more. It's pretty simple and straight forward.

well, since I have no buddies on icq, by default I have to pick msn. However, messenging wise I prefer yahoo messenger, but most of my friends are on aim. (I use trillian to have multiple messengers at once..I love it)
