Not possible. Anyways, DOS or Windows - IM is a big waste of computer resources and a HUGE security problem. If you want to talk with your friends without using any special software, open a private chatroom at Yahoo. You can use the voice chat feature to notify you when a new message is posted. Ya know: "h3y d00dz!" Oh God, I think I just AOLed all over myself.

IMing not possible for DOS? Shame on you Doof! I thought you knew better than to underestimate the shear power of the DOS operating system. LSICQ, which is a DOS port of ICQ is available from this website: http://members.tripod.com/~ladsoft/lsicq/index.htm Credits go to W0rm for having the link on his page.
Hope that helps, -Michael
