What version of Gaim were you using before?  If it was CVS, do you know what
date it's from?

Those 2 ssi message are printed when gaim receives an ack for some SSI action.
 Type 0x0008 is an "add," and I have no idea what error 0x0001 is.  If you're
curious, you can see the list of errors that I've seen at
http://kingant.net/oscar/?family=0x0013&subtype=0x000e

Would it be possible for you to email me the entire output of the debug window
from the before signing on to after all those messages scroll by?

Also, do you have access to the Windows version of AIM?  Or any other official
release?  I am curious if signing on with that would fix the problem or not. 
A full packet capture using tcpdump or ethereal of that account signing on
with Gaim and/or Windows AIM might be helpful, as well.

Thanks,
Mark
