Today I installed icq in my MS Windows partition and tried it, and it is actually possible to join public group chatrooms: I did it myself. There's a room called `#Computers', another one called `#20 something', another named `#French' and so on. They're hundreds. Maybe you mean that they're not strictly related to icq? But anyway I don't manage to join them through `gaim', nor with `centericq' nor with `gabber' (using Jabber network). I wish I could do without MS Windows. Further hints highly appreciated.
