    Hi.
    
    A few weeks ago, it was posted that ICQ99 stores the password
    used to access the ICQ network in plain-text in the .DAT files.
    We have written a program that demonstrates this by parsing
    these .DAT files for password and showing it to the user.
    It can be downloaded at http://www.encrsoft.com/products.html#icqpass
    
    Note: The option to save password can be turned off in ICQ's
    Security & Privacy settings.
    
    Yours truly,
