The iChat problems. Please read and help :-(

so, running ichat, on os x lion 10.7.3. these problems have been here while, though (i got comp 10.7.0). have aim/gmail/yahoo connected..

1 problem issue of non-authorized people. there list of "not authorized" people have scroll past in "offline" section of ichat buddies before real offline contacts. big note here: these people have address (something)@aol.com. these contacts have come result of gmail connection. see, few months ago gmail , aim did chat unification process @aol.com contacts can added gmail chatting. these @aol.com copies come asking invite when real aim address person talks me. invites leave once press decline, stay on list not authorized. if delete these "not-authorized" copies, invites come again , cycle repeat. nuisance considering how of these false contacts on list.

second problem video/audio chat in general. issue applies on aim/yahoo—there nothing gmail because people use web interface doesn't work ichat video/audio. if people used google talk, issue written below come up.
see, happens that…video/audio chat broken, simple that. contacts tell me error has occurred when trying accept video chat invite. doesn't work. using aim desktop in cases. when did used work (to limited extent, i'll say; hit or miss earlier, it's miss), video no audio. see/hear me, see them. when did audio chats, hear me, i..don't hear them (so audio chats pointless). case problem doesn't happen it's mac mac, ichat ichat. limited in use of audio/video chat, if ask me.
