I thought I would report this as a bug. I originally used
Pebrot 0.8.2 on Redhat Linux 9. I had no problems with
it until last week on 18 Feb. It appears that I can
connect and appear online to all my buddies but can not
see any of them online, the list comes up to show me
who is connected but is empty even though there are
people online.
I upgraded to 0.8.4 but the problem still persists.
Any ideas, here's my pebrotrc file (minus password :-)

I have exeactly the same problem. Other clients did not
seem to break on the 18th, so I assume it's something to
do with Pebrot and MS doing something to their protocol
again.
