Just read through the thread and found that someone has had the same problem I'm having, not being able to click on the contacts in the widget. By frantically clicking I can sometimes manage to get the contact window up.

Supposedly, this has to do with the double-click speed settings? I read about an option in the program but couldn't find one. And yes, I'm using the latest version (0.8.7.4-1)

Thanks. Sorry if I missed something in the thread, it's quite long.
