I followed your advice & download the socks5 package (it's a server +
client as well right?)

been reading how to install & run it but can't figure out 3 quarters of
what they're saying?
I did a 
./configure --with-default-port=1080
--with-default-server=socks.qut.edu.au --with-default-version=5
--with-srvconffile=/etc/socks5.conf
--with-libconffile=/usr/local/etc/libsocks5.conf

without really knowing what will result.
I think i gotta set some env vars SOCKS5_USER & SOCKS5_PASSWD to use
runsock?
I did that but runsock ./ICQ still get any response.  runsock xchat gets
a connection refused error - previously it just says "trying to connect"
& just blocks there.  I guess runsocks is working to some extend but I'm
not in complete understand of the exact configuration process.

what am I missing out?
