Description
Currently, it's possible to log into an account that another KMess instance is connected to on the same machine. Apart from that MSNP<18 doesn't allow this and will disconnect the other KMess instance, this may cause problems like both instances editing the same files, corrupting it. KMess should lock an account when logging into it, and unlock properly when it quits; it should also be able to detect if an account is locked and if the lock is stale. If a lock is found and it isn't stale, KMess should give an error and not log in, even when autoconnect is specifically enabled.
