I just had a disturbing experience. With my ICQ privacy settings geared up to full, a friend fired up an AIM client and proceeded to add himself to my contact list simply by sending me a message.
I can envision thousands of AIM gnomes (or a couple pimply faced twits) flooding LICQ contact lists to the point of implosion.
Is there any way to tell AIM users to bloody wait until I add them, or force them to request authorization first? Even if they can add me without doing so (a disturbing notion nonetheless) I'd like to keep my contact list free of unwanted clutter if at all possible.
While I'm here I'd also like to know something about groups and server-side contact lists; I have a contact in my 'General' group (formerly not directly grouped, or grouped as a co-worker or the like) who periodically re-appears in my "Friends" group (displayed per default) and I have to manually remove it / change groups.
