IM Chat

So I use Trillian on my PC.  Now I got a MacBook and M. installed Adium for me.  When I set up my accounts, I got all these alerts asking me if I’d allow these people to add me to their IM contact list.  I just clicked YES to all of them cuz I figured maybe I just don’t regocnize the email associated w/ the ID, but maybe I know the people.  Then I get an IM from a guy who says “I don’t know you, who are you?” and we chat a bit and I have NO idea who he is or where I know him from or why he messaged me (except that I guess when I clicked “OK” to all those alerts, those people got confirmation alerts.  So then, I get BACK on my PC for a bit and start up Trillian, and I get the same alerts AGAIN!  This time I clicked NO to the ones I didn’t recognize (most of them).  That’s just weird.  Truth is, I have SOOOOOo many IM contacts in Trillian it’s NUTS.  I hate to delete seemingly “old” contacts because sometimes people DO pop on IM that I have literally not seen in years!  So I hate to delete them.  That said, if you do like to chat w/ me on IM, especially MSN IM, you may have to re-ad me to your contact list.
