How to restore access to the ICQ number means service

Continuing the theme article "ICQ  - what and how to install". Frankly, I take this service very often, just in case. A recently installed Skype, I liked more - simpler, and does not slow, at startup. But it is to the amateur.

Consider going to a hypothetical situation where you lose access to ICQ. I mean, forget your password. This situation may occur after you reinstall your operating system. Or, imagine a crash when exiting from the program, its contents are still with the registration, login and password. Who knows ...

Situation, when you increase the data access ICQ, and changed the mailbox will not consider. I'm afraid that in this case, the number for you, unfortunately, lost.

To begin with, that to get a new password, you must have access to an electronic mailbox, which is registered ICQ, and you remember the secret answer to your secret question. Only in this case, you are able to restore access to a number.

In order to service you a new password generated the need to go to the page of your website ICQ "Support-Retrieve Password". There you will see the form of two columns.

In the titles you will see an inscription:

The first - "I Forgot my ICQ Password" (I forgot my password for ICQ)

The second - "I Forgot my ICQ Number" (I forgot my number ICQ)

On this page you can access from the data entry forms in the program by clicking on the "Forgot Password".

If you have access to the mailbox, or use the email client, then find the letter with the registration data obtained after the registration number. There you will find your number ICQ. This number, type in the first form in the field "ICQ number" and click "Next". If the number is lost, but remember nickname (login), under which communicated with this number, then fill the second form. They are writing their own labels: the nickname, name, surname, address of the box - exactly as specified at registration, and presses "Search".

In the second step, generate a new password in the form to write the answer to your secret question (he will be given), email address registration, fill the captcha (the numbers from the image) and click "Submit". If all goes well, then the resulting page, a message appears stating that your email took a new password.

We receive new mail, we find a letter from the slide ICQ, and there is a new password to the program. Start the animation ICQ, then enter the number or nickname and a new password, click "Sign" and ... Voila! You are in the program ... I hope:)

I repeat that this method will suit you only if you have access to the box, which was recorded ICQ. In most cases, and for other services, this is generally true. So what, watch your mailbox. Because, judging from the commentary to the article: "How do I delete a mailbox in Yandex", - the loss of access to it can be very painful.

ICQ - what and how to

Post was born as a response to the Comment to the article on communication in the network, from a visitor blog, Sergei. Thank you all still happy that your article someone read it and ask questions. Well, in the case.

ICQ - it basically stands for "I SEEK YOU - I am looking for you", and she has lived since 1996. For a man - a program using their Internet protocols for data transmission. After that you can find other people to communicate exchanging messages, use it as a program for viewing the Internet, send SMSki, make Internet phone calls.

To install the program it should download. Can a parent site ICQ.com, can be a Rambler-ICQ or Bigmir) net. Look for the button-type "Download ICQ", "Download ICQ". Click on them. Browser, a program in which you see web page, will offer to save the file - agree (remember where to save). After downloading run the file "Install_ICQ65.exe" - install a program on your computer.

After installation, run the program panel. By default, it starts when you start the system windose. If not run itself, then run through Start-Programs-ICQ6-ICQ6. (ICQ6 at the time of reading may already ICQ6.5 or ICQ7 and so on). The right side of the screen you'll see a set ICQ.

Because of their numbers in ICQ you do not, then connecting to the Internet and click the button-link "Register" button on your ICQ. The program opens a window ICQ Sing-Up, that is, the registration window. Possible connection to the server service will be set a little slow - be patient.

The first step in registering is to create the "Account" or your account. You need to enter your email address in the column "Name" and password to access the service, to repeat the same password next time (this is confirmed), to invent and introduce nickname - The name you use on the network. Additionally you can also enter the name and surname, date of birth, gender. Click the button "Next".

The second step - this is personal preferences. Here you enter their country, languages spoken. Enter your security question and answer, to be able to access your account to recover lost passwords. Enter the number from the image at the bottom - it is necessary to protect the service from automatic registration (called a "captcha"). Again click "Next."

Window opens, where it will be given your personal New Number ICQ - rewrite. Currently nine-digit number. If you do not overwrite not worry - all the information on the account sent to the mailbox you specified in step one. Click the Next button.

You will transfer into your program ICQ and it will automatically authorize a service on a number. All can be used. Log after restarting the computer is carried through the mail or mail or through the room.

Using the program intuitive. I think that there is no need for it, in this case, paint. We must try to use. If you need to use ELISA, the vozpolzuytes online HELP type "ICQ Help" on bigmir or rambler

There are also several types of ICQ-client programs from other developers type: QIP (Quiet Internet Pager), Miranda im, JIMM (this is for mobile). There is also a business of selling short and beautiful rooms shestiznakov, semiznakov.
