Finch: Unable to connect to ICQ server

Hi folks,
I have a problem with connecting to ICQ server. I tried default login.messaging.aol.com, login.icq.com but it does not work. It says I tried to connect too many times and I have to reconnect after 10 minutes... but no luck with reconnecting.

Have no problems with Google Talk.

I saw this

pidgin.im homepage says:

"Having trouble with AIM/ICQ? Uncheck 'Use clientLogin' on the advanced
tab of the account settings."

Is it this error? https://developer.pidgin.im/ticket/14294

Check your version with apt-cache policy finch or apt-cache policy libpurple0
