AIM/ICQ both use port 5190.
Yes.
Yes.

After some more poking around, (I work in a retail store and couldn't
get a reply up sooner), I added the following lines in my squid.conf:

acl aim port 5190-5200
no_cache allow aim
http_access allow aim

This works for both AIM and ICQ, however, the ICQ connection remains
active, while the AIM connection fails after about 5 minutes, citing a
Proxy Connection Error 503.  More consultation of the greater brain
(aka Google) yields that a 503 error is a proxy out of resources
error, however this does not appear to be the case, especially because
my cache is less than 0.7% full and the load on the server is
extremely light.

Any ideas?

Thanks
