I've got the opposite problem. Somewhere ICQ is being blocked for me, but shouldn't be. ICQ sends it's stuff mainly on port 4000. But the app allows you to get around firewalls and seems to be specifically designed for this. The typical user to user stuff is supposed to take place between UDP ports 2000 and 4000, although I've found it uses UDP 1190-1237 (Which is where I was blocked). Don't ask why!
