Once upon a time, when I first started using iChat, if the other person closed their IM window, a small note would appear in my screen saying "John Smith left the chat".

Well, at some point a while back now, this started saying "You left the chat" instead. I didn't leave the chat! The other person did, not me. Yet it no longer says "Name of person left the chat", it tells me I did.

Small things I know. But it happens to everyone I know with the most up to date version of iChat and Panther. What's up with that? I assume its a bug, but it hasn't been fixed for a few updates - is this experienced by everyone?

I get that too.

Obviously iChat is a piece of crap.

It happens when a direct IM session times out, AFAICT.
