Comment:

 I just checked in a fix for this.  We'll now close the direct IM session
 if someone sends us a file over 50MB.  I don't think this is something we
 should make configurable... it's not a feature people use very often and I
 don't think the added preference is justified... but if people complain we
 can always change that in the future.
