There's a whole bunch of ICQ clients for linux... you could look for them at www.freshmeat.net ... just do a search for ICQ client... when I'm in linux, I use micq... it's a text-based ICQ client But there are other GUI based ones... you have a lot to choose from.

As for converting the contact list from Win ICQ client to the Linux one, uhm.... I don't know if it's possible or not. Well, you could always write down her ICQ number somewhere, and later add her back in...

You know you could dual boot your computer. Have the best of both worlds, Windows and Linux.
