Comment 51 for bug 480605

Still an issue here, latest normal release of Empathy on Ubuntu 12.10 32-bit, have to decline requists to chat from spammers every time I log in, from the same accounts. For example, I had to block user "antoginizingalma " on Yahoo! IM untold numbers of times.

Interestingly, I've recently started having problems with the Launcher badges for Empathy not updating, so it always shows "5" even when I've quit Empahy or read all messages.
