Just gave beta 3 a try, installed fine. The new option to set the away status when the screen saver is activated works as expected!

I'm the developer of growliChat. Showing the message received is one of the most requested feature and I'm too lazy to play with the input manager thingy. Now, I'm telling my user to use Chax if they want message notification!!! Great Job!!!

Feature request: The Always on top for windows is very nice. I'd like a way to automate that... an option for any active chat to automatically get that behavior. Once a chat hasn't had activity for XX seconds, it is considered inactive, and loses the always on top behavior. Something like that anyway. Carrying the idea further... after XX seconds of inactivity, automatically send inactive chats to the dock (minimize).

My "enable auto-away" keeps reverting back to zero. Any ideas why?
