Just my 0.02$; The ICQ is uses udp to contact the server; perhaps the natd "forgets" about your icq session when the interval between the packets is too great? maybe you need to decrease the interval in icq or increase some timeout in natd. However I have no idea if my theory is right, guys, anyone, opinion?
