Adium simply logs out without warning & a strange message.

Hi,
Apologies if this has been posted before, but I looked at the other topics, and while I did see information about "crashes", that isn't really my issue. My adium simply logs out. There is no crashing or error messages, it just logs itself out and a small window pops up with my screenname and password ready for me to log myself back in. That never happened until I updated a couple of days ago.
Can anyone explain, or tell me of a way to reconfigure adium so this doesn't happen anymore?
If it helps, I have an Imac running 10.5.5.
Thanks.

What service are you using? What version of Adium are you using (Adium > About Adium)? Can you take a screenshot of the dialog that you're seeing?

Sounds like one of the problems I've had last few days- lemme guess you use yahoo messenger?
Is this the dialog box you get?

Thanks for the responses. I did more checking yesterday. The strange message is actually an adium thing (silly me). It was a Star Wars reference that freaked me out a bit because I wasn't sure where it came from. Apparently, it has something to do with "psychic". So that part of my message you guys can ignore.
The other issue is still going strong, though. Every few hours like clockwork, adium logs out, and yes, I'm using yahoo messenger. It's a minor annoyance (much better than all out crashes), but if there's a way to fix it I would sure like to.
My version of adium is 1.3.1, so I think it's the latest, and my mac runs 10.5.5.

Same problem for me. Yahoo service closes w/o warning and there's a small dialog box asking for the account password (with the •'s for the password there). I'm logged in as invisible. I'll grab a screenshot the next time it happens.
Using Adium 1.3.1 with OS X 10.4.11 on a PowerBook G4.
Edit: Doh! I bumped the wrong thread. I see that there is another thread with a much more involved discussion of the problem. I see that the issue is known and I'll watch for a fix. BTW, this program kicks major booty. Love it.
