 This is not a serious bug but since I just noticed it, I thought to submit
 it.

 I tested this with MSN.[[BR]]
 1) Connect to say your Yahoo acoount (So Tools->Privacy becomes
 clickable)[[BR]]
 2) Now, connect to MSN and while its still connecting, click
 Tools->Privacy and select the same MSN account[[BR]]
 3) It will disconnect that account saying "Read error"[[BR]]

 May be this happens because it tries to fetch "Privacy settings" before
 its being actually connected. So may be this should be done only for
 accounts in "Connected" state.

 I am not sure if it happens for Yahoo, as Yahoo connects almost
 immediately before you can click Tools->Privacy. But MSN takes time and
 its easier to reproduce.
