However, unlike AdiumX, iChat does not show Growl notifications (wow I’m speaking alien language aren’t I? Mac users should understand this, I think).

I’m not sure if it’s an iChat issue or Growl issue, but we have a solution :)

Chax aims to make your experience using iChat more enjoyable. Go to their site, download the installer and run it. It should prompt you to restart iChat after installation.

Chax preferences

Chax’s preferences is located inside iChat preferences. There are many things you can do there, but for me the most important thing is to turn on the Growl notifications. There. Now I am a happier iChat user :)
