Problems with a contact

I have an odd problem with one of my contacts. This doesn't happen all the time though.

OS X 10.5.8
Adium 1.4.1

The problem is that occasionally when opening a new chat window with this user, Adium gives me the beach ball cursor for literally about 30 minutes, before I can do anything with it. Other contacts have no problem opening a chat window and communicating with them.

I have Adium installed on 2 iMacs. The one having the problem is an intel iMac. An older iMac (G4 800MHz running 10.4.11) has no problems with the same contact. I had copied all the Adium files from the G4 iMac to the intel iMac and Adium worked fine for a while. Then this problem started occurring occasionally. Restarting the iMac doesn't seem to fix it.

Thoughts?

cruciarius, please try the 1.4.2 beta. It fixes a hang. By the way, is this contact an ICQ user?

I'll try out the beta.

No, the user is using AIM, but also has MSN and YIM. As default though, the chat window opens up as AIM.
