ICQ Backup

ICQ is one of the most popular instant messengers worldwide. Used by over 30 millions of users around the world, it has carved out quite a niche as the easiest utility for chatting, holding multi-user conversations, exchanging files, and other online activities. For many people it's not only a means of communication, but a big part of life – that's the main reason why they seek for a way to back up ICQ logs and preferences.

In addition to "common" files and folders backup Handy Backup has a number of advanced plug-ins which let you back up popular applications (including ICQ Backup, Outlook Express Backup, Windows Media Player Backup, etc.) with all settings and preferences. The program doesn't treat ICQ backups like copying "faceless" chunks of memory, but also extracts all necessary registry entries – and allows recovering everything in the tweaked-to-perfection state you're used to.
