You can find the password in the OS X keychain. See http://trac.adium.im/wiki/WhatToDoIfYou ... urPassword.

If you can't find it there, you can always go thru the ICQ site and reset your "lost password". I'd think they have a way to either email you the correct one or let you reset it manually. THEN you'd have to put the new one in your Adium setup.
