BoxelyToolkit was the interface toolkit used by ICQ 6. In this context, .box files store XML data that the toolkit reads as part of ICQ's application resources.
The files are associated with ICQ software for Microsoft Windows, Apple macOS and Mac OS X, and Linux or Unix systems. They are supporting files for the application rather than user documents intended for independent use.
ICQ 6 and its BoxelyToolkit files are legacy software components. The format is therefore unlikely to be encountered in current ICQ installations.
Because this type of .box file contains XML text, it can be inspected with a text editor or XML editor. Editing it manually may prevent ICQ 6 from using the resource correctly.
The file was intended to be read by the corresponding ICQ 6 installation on Windows, macOS or Linux. It does not normally need to be opened directly, and a standalone viewer is not generally required.
There is no generally useful conversion for an ICQ 6 BoxelyToolkit .box file. It is an application resource, not a document format designed for export.
