------- Additional Comments From bjt23 at cornell.edu  2004-11-02 01:16 UTC -------
1) can you load the "select profile" screen, then open a terminal and run the
"xprop" command.  it will turn the cursor into a crosshair "+" shape.  click on
the "select profile" window, and xprop will print out details of the window. 
please attach them to this bug (it'll likely be large, please attach, not paste
into the comments box).

2) gaim does something similar: as you switch between different conversation
tabs in a single window, it will change the window's icon to match that user's
buddy icon, or, failing that, a protocol-specific icon.  xftaskbar4 correctly
notices this change, so it's possible SIM is using an incorrect or nonstandard
method to change the icon.

for future reference; one bug per bug report, please.  also, please try a more
descriptive summary "a bug in xftaskbar4" is not very useful: obviously it's a
bug, else it wouldn't be here.
