I have ICQ Lite (just downloaded it last week to replace Trillian) and when I downloaded it there was a check/uncheck box asking if I wanted to also download the toolbar. I didn't check it and nothing was automatically installed.
So far - so good. Lite is cool because it takes up less resources than the old version - which is why I *used* to prefer Trillian but without all the bugs. It's been a nice change.
