You can also use ngrep.  It is very useful for pulling things you are
interested in out of network traffic.  Here is an example of url grabbing:

ngrep '^GET' "dst port 80"

I'm sure after looking at a couple streams of icq messages it would be easy
to construct a simple filter for them.  You can use regular expressions
which is quite handy.
