so as the title explains, I am able to open my aunts ichat when i send her a message via a chat box. how is this possible.

i did some searching for this problem but could not find a definitive answer to this situation.

we reviewed a bunch of settings.
in her iChat preferences:
WHEN I QUIT ICHAT SET MY STATUS TO OFFLINE is checked.

in her System Preferences
iChat is NOT a login item

her fire wall is on and only a certain amount of specified applications have access to accept incoming connections, ichat is not one of them.

on my end, i noticed that she showed up in my buddy list as available, but did not have the green multilayered video icon next to her name.

i doubled clicked her name, and the chat box popped up, and i sent a message, she replied with, "how did you open my iChat?"

can anyone help ?
