I think this is an IM bug...

More then a technical issue...whats yall say?

I was IMing some one and suddenly I begin getting IMs through that one person's window...as though it were a group chat...with out ever inviting some one, or agreeing to any thing. I latter learn that theses are people that the person I was originally IMing with knew...I'm guessing they some how ended up with our IMs.

Aside form this, these people are now claiming abuse...when I did nothing wrong, and SL glitched on me. Whats up guys? Is this a bug or a technical issue that can be fixed?

I got the same yesterday but even stranger i don't now the person. Suddenly the name was in my IM window a name from a individual person not a group. Then i wait a moment and other names answered in that tab i also don't know like in a group window but it was the one from a person. Strange

Yep, it's a bug, a pretty wide-spread one at that: http://www.sluniverse.com/php/vb/showthread.php?t=4333
