Hi Chris, I'm using a few plug-ins (system tray, the one which shows the last conversation,...) nothing which is not installed with GAIM by default. I'm on my home machine now - I get the problems on the office machine. I have the box set to auto-update, so it's always on the latest. Maybe I can run a md5sum on the gaim files - maybe something is corrupt. Best regards, Chris On Thu, 2004-10-14 at 15:46, Christopher K.
