From our Sponsor December 3, PM Subscribe iChat has an annoying tendency to periodically disconnect itself from AIM and Jabber, bouncing in the dock to alert me.
Reconnecting is always simple, but it's annoying. Anyone else have this problem, and ever find a solution? I'm running Leopard, but this happened under Tiger too. I'm on a desktop with an always-on connection, and it's not a firewall or router problem -- I have the firewall off, and all ports forwarded on the router. I've also since replaced the router, and the problem's persisted. I've looked at this related question - iChat periodically disconnects - but the situation described is a bit different, as I don't get any notice about "disconnecting", it just silently becomes offline.
In addition, the proposed work-around in that question - using Chax - does not work for Lion. Adium can be good alternative. Also, there's a difference between running iChatAV, then choosing "available" in it's menu and not running the application but choosing "available" from its menu which can be done. The application itself seems less stable when you choose available without running it first.
