Can someone help me???

maybe it's a predatory practice on behalf of a major software giant.
It's a known bug that's been in Gaim for more than a year now. If you go to the Gaim website and get their latest BETA (not latest release), the beta has that bug fixed.

When you say the "latest BETA"? Do you mean of GAIM or Pidgin?
Get the GAIM Beta. AFAIK, Pidgin has the same problem with MSN.

I had this problem too, have you tried a stable release?

Wow, that signature totally got old.
Stable releases have that bug. From what I remember, it first originated about a year and a half ago. It took a huge amount of looking around on the Gaim website, but I finally found a post that said that it's a known bug and please download the latest Beta, which fixes the problem. Apparently, they still haven't put the fix into the stable release.
I googled around about Pidgin and apparently, it has the same bug. I have no clue about beta releases of Pidgin. Download one and find out if you're interested.
In my experience (which is a bit old by now), the beta doesn't misbehave in any way, so I'd just switch to the beta, unless you have other reasons not to.
