Well, this is hardly a Kazaa Lite problem. But an ICQ Number is basically a screen name on a chat program called ICQ (get the naming reference?). Instead of signing up with a screen name, you are given a number, that is what you are identified as.

The ICQ numbers are really hard to remember. Before when it first came out, I remember an ICQ# number being like 4598836. Now if you sign up, your probably going to get a number like 415751498454984578.

Shouldn't be any harder to remember than someones phone number, lol.
Nicknames can be associated with the numbers too, like if you're trying to find someone on ICQ.
If ICQ wasn't so popular and had so many users, the numbers wouldn't be so long.
Maybe when ICQ started out, way back when, they might not have expected it to do so well and maybe would have thought about how long the numbers could get.
I've used ICQ for 7 years now, and I was around the beginning 3 millionth user, and what is there now, like 300 million, something like that, more than all other instant messengers combined I bet.
