We have received evidence which suggests a mass hack of ICQ has taken place - but neither AOL or security experts can come up with an explanation .

A Register reader discovered last week that both of his accounts had suddenly become disconnected and the passwords no longer work. The email addresses for both accounts were changed to 'uin@deathrow.com'.

A search of the ICQ whitepages reveals hundreds of accounts all with that same address (registered in places such as China and Egypt), and we began to suspect some kind of mass hack had been carried out.

Verrrry strange.
