  Step 1:  Get to the Uninstall Screen

Open a Report
Click the "Start" button and then choose "Programs," "ICQ," and then "Uninstall ICQ."
  Step 2:  Make it Automatic

Open a Report
You'll see the "Select Uninstall Method" dialog box, which offers two ways of uninstalling the program. Here, we'll delete all the ICQ files. (If there are a few you'd like to keep, don't choose this option. Or, move those files with Windows Explorer if you know which ones you want to keep.) Click the "Automatic" button and then click "Next." (Note: You do not need to be connected to the Internet to uninstall.)
  Step 3:  Finishing Up

Open a Report
Now click the "Finish" button to begin ICQ's removal. If you see a "Remove Shared Component" box during the uninstall, it's best to click "No to All" to prevent a shared file from being deleted. Removing these files may affect how other programs run.
  Step 4:  It's Gone!

Open a Report
Watch the program uninstall before your eyes! Then click "Finish" again to complete the uninstall procedure.
