[Ti] iChat - New problem.

[P ål Degerstrø m]

This may not apply to you, since you have a clean install, but here goes
anyway: I experienced the same problem after I put a lot of font files in my
~/Fonts folder. After I moved the fonts elsewhere (I'm using Suitcase
anyway), everything was fine.

Hope this helps.
