Yes, like I said in my first post it is showing up in history, that's why I think its being sent right to the history file, and bypassing the chat window. Also, when I send a message
I can see my outgoing text in the chat window. The only thing I can't see in the chat window is the incoming message text. Oh, one thing I forgot to mention is that the first incoming message shows up in the little window that pops up when someone tries to contact me.
I double checked the font colors, its set for white background and black fonts. The translucency setting is disabled.
