Adium stopped working with pastes from other users

Sunday, 22 October 2017

I see stuff like this now anytime someone changes their font or pastes a link.

for example, http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/office-jerk/id423593206?mt=8

Not sure why it's not being parsed.

Any ideas on how to fix this?

UPDATE: Fixed in Adium 1.4.3rc1. See bug ticket.

Answer

This appears to an issue with OS X Lion iChat clients sending XHTML-IM formatted messages. In my experience it happens sporadically.

A ticket has been filed in the Adium issue tracker against it.

Unable to find a fix thus far.
