ICQ is a chat client that works by connecting to the ICQ webserver
(www.mirabilis.com). The company that owns the ICQ program has a rather
extensive member directory and may have some links to yellow pages (its
own and/or others in the web). I'm not sure what the kind of space the
application takes up, but it doesn't strike me as being humongous.

More about ICQ can be found at www.icq.com/icqme.html#basics.
