ICQr Information v1.5 reads out information stored in Mirabilis ICQ 
Database (.DAT) files. It supports ICQ 99a/b, 2000a/b and 2001a.
These files contain everything the user enters in his private details.

ICQr Information is able to read and reveal personal information, 
such as nickname, address, birthday and many more. As it's THE ONLY
KNOWN program that can extract passwords of all supported ICQ versions,
it can be used to get back your own lost password !
It is even possible to find *already deleted* friends, because the DAT 
file is often NOT "cleaned" up after removing somebody from your
contact list.

You can export the gathered information into a multiplatform HTML file
and save the contact list to a textfile. ICQr Information allows to
select those elements you want to export.

If you have ICQ installed, ICQr Information automatically reads out
the last used account on startup. You can use the command line 
parameter /NOLOAD to disable this.
You can use the "Open Database" button to load other accounts or drag
and drop a file on the ICQr Information window or on the executable.
