My new ICQ number
I was one of the second million users of ICQ when I registered back in 1997. This week however, after I was careless enough not to update my account's long forgotten E-Mail and password, someone managed to hack it and make my account unusable.

So I was forced to re-register an ICQ account, well into the 420th million.

It's worth to mention that the old account has received a generous amount of spam messages and that got pretty annoying. I guess that when you submit your ICQ account to sites like livejournal, it gets picked up by spam bots.

I'm not going to publish my new number. If you want to look it up, search my name - I'm pretty sure you won't find two of me matching 419xxxxxx.

It also seems that ICQ accounts turned into some sort of a virtual real estate, as short (6-digit) UINs are being sold on eBay..
