I was bored the other day so I was checking out the stuff that came with my
computer and there where a few stuff that I don't know what they are first
are ICQ and MAV, and I was wondering if anybody can tell me what they are
also there was Window's Mail, I know what is is, but I was just wondering if
its a free program or if you have to pay for it? I was also wondering if ICQ
and MAV are programs and if they are, are they free? I have Window's Vista
Home Basic I don't know if that would be any help. Thanks in advance.

ICQ is an instant message product, probably the first to be widely used.
I use it all the time. It's free. http://icq.com/

Don't know what MAV is.... NAV might be Norton Anti Virus..

Windows Mail is the replacement for Outlook Express email client, and it's
free.

ICQ is a free chat client, one that's been around for quite a while!

Windows Mail is the replacement for Outlook Express, and it is free as well.

As for MAV... I'm not sure. A quick Google search found nothing either...

If it is NAV (Norton Anti Virus), there have been multiple reports of it causing
very serious problems with WM (Windows Mail) that require a complete
uninstallation of NAV.

Since ICQ was added by the manufacturer and doesn't usually come
preinstalled on a new computer, I'm guessing maybe this 'MAV' is also
something included by the builder, so, you might ask them about it.
