When I'm looged into Adium, and someone switches over to their account (without logging me out of course), doesn't my status in Adium change? Am I still online, away, or offline?

It will change if you set the option in the Status preferences.

Wow. I've noticed that time and time again in iChat, but I never saw that in Adium. I guess when I go to Status, I just look at my custom away messages.

When my daughter was online and I switched to my account, I noticed that her Adium status went to "idle." (She didn't have any specific settings on relative to fast user switching.)

*nod* Our idle code looks at activity on the appropriate "workspace session" -- that is, logged in user -- so activity on your user doesn't register as activity on hers.

Makes sense to me.
