Description
Approximately every 20 minutes, AIM disconnects unexpectedly and after a moment reconnects. During this time MSN and Yahoo are uninterrupted and other users on the contacts list are still visible.
I have watched Adium and iChat at the same time, and iChat doesn't skip a beat when Adium loses AIM.
During the disconnection from AIM, people I am conversing with witness me disappear and then reappear at the same time I am seeing it on my end.
I have a brand new MacBook running 10.5.1, and usually am connected to the internet by dial-up. I haven't checked to see if it occurs while the MacBook is connected by a wi-fi connection, but I suspect it is. My previous machine was a 350 mHz G3 with 10.3.9 on it on dial-up, and it performed flawlessly. I am unsure about the Adium version number on that, but it was the newest that would run on that OS.
