Often, the realization of how much time it takes to empty ICQ correspondence provokes the emergence of a natural desire to delete it. Then the impulse passes, curiosity about possible new messages begins to torment, and the remote ICQ program takes its place on the desktop again. And sooner or later the question arises, is it possible to delete your ICQ account once and for all?
It is necessary
- - A computer
- - The Internet
- - ICQ program
Instructions
Step 1
Before removing your account from ICQ, think about less drastic measures. For example, if you no longer want to communicate with someone who has already been added to your contact list, then add him to the ignore list. This is very easy to do. Move the cursor over the name of the unwanted interlocutor, right-click and in the tab that appears, select the "Ignore" command. From this moment on, you will not see a single message from this ICQ user until you remove him from the ignore list. With this, you will see if he is typing text.
Step 2
If you nevertheless made a final decision on the "exit" from ICQ, then first carefully review your list of contacts. Think about who you would not want to interrupt your communication with in the future. In order not to lose any of your acquaintances, friends and business partners, send them messages explaining that you are stopping using ICQ and indicate other means of communication with you, after which you can proceed to delete your account.
Step 3
In general, it is impossible to delete your ICQ account yourself. But there are still two ways to solve this problem.
Option one. Log into the ICQ program from your computer and change all information about yourself. Then change the password to one that you cannot remember. Next, exit the program and remove it from your computer. Thus, you will no longer be able to log into ICQ under this account and it is quite possible that after a while the admin will delete it as inactive.
Step 4
Option two. Also, change all information about yourself, but not for any, but taken from the so-called black lists, that is, black lists of spammers (this information can be found on the Internet). Then exit ICQ and remove it from your computer. AOL, as a rule, removes such wins.
