iChat crash

my ichat crashed and will no longer respond (it launches, but nothing functions). i'm getting an error message that looks like this, below, and i am unable to find any info online about anything called _IsArubaActive. any ideas? should i just try reinstalling it?

Dyld Error Message:
Symbol not found: _IsArubaActive

not sure.. but why are you using ichat... adium is magnitudes better than ichat.

good idea

heh, well that's one way to do it. i took your advice, and yes, adium is much nicer. problem solved, thanks!
