Below is the mail I sent to licq-users recently, I guess I should have 
sent it to licq-dev as well:

As you might already have noticed, the ICQ servers has started to reject 
some clients, including Licq.

When trying to sign on, Licq gives the following error:
 [SRV] Sending md5 hashed password.
 [ERR] Unknown sign on error: 0x1C.

It seems the fix was pretty simple so just grab the new SVN version and 
it will work again.

For users of Licq 1.3.4 or 1.3.5 the attached patches should get you 
online again.
