Cancelled file transfer crashes Adium

I've been having this problem for many versions, and I've submitted a few bug reports on it, I'm just wondering if anyone else has this problem and how/when it can be fixed.

When a contact sends a file, but it's not connecting so they cancel it, about 30 seconds later Adium crashes. Always. If I cancel the transfer first, this doesn't happen. It's supremely annoying. I'm surprised no one else is complaining about this... it seems like it would be a relatively easy fix. Anyone want to see the error log or anything?

Yep I get this with msn all the time. With me though as I have auto accept file transfer on, if someone sends me a file that they've already sent (an updated version or whatever, a frequent thing), the accept transfer box comes up asking for a name.. if I'm away at the time it times out (or they cancel it?) and if I hit 'ok' on the name when I finally get back, adium dies on me.

Related bug to the above, when the file already exists, this accept file transfer/pick a name window automatically pops up and steals focus from my message window input, and gives the focus to the file name input. 99% of the time I'll keep typing a few characters and overwrite the file name of what is being transferred.. leading to many a stupid question 'hey man what was that file called again.. yeah i got it, but like what did you name it..' heh.

Filed bug reports on both of the above previously

This should be fixed in 0.85. If you're still seeing the problem, please post a trac ticket including the email address under which you submitted the crash report.
