Privacy settings in Adium!
Adium is a great replacement for many instant messaging applications. I use it every day to replace Microsoft Messenger. One thing that I have noticed is that I have started getting a lot of spam. By default, Microsoft Messenger blocks everyone that is not on your contact list. Adium works the other way around, but you can change that setting:
1. Go to Adium, Privacy Settings...
2. Change "Privacy level" to "Allow only contacts on my contact list".

Is it possible to video chat with Adium?

Thanks for this tip. I had actually deactivated my MSN account in Adium because of all the spam I was getting.
Thanks! I searched all over for this the other day because my Yahoo! account gets so much spam.
thanks. this has been driving me crazy!
Let me just point out that this is NOT in preferences, but directly under the Adium menu. I had missed it for ages..
