Just found out that #BeagleIM automatically fetches web links in messages and plays the page's video if there is one.
This is not acceptable behavior!!!
* It's annoying. There isn't any obvious way to stop the video.
* It's insecure. The linked page might attack vulnerabilities in Beagle's video player.
* It exposes the user's IP address to anyone who sends them a message, potentially physically endangering them.
Will uninstall and replace ASAP.
