Would it be possible to confirm if this is related to the issues mentioned in the Pidgin and AdiumX bug trackers? Both tickets reference, but indicate they were unable to confirm if this was the solution. I know that as of openfire 3.5.2 the invalid characters still terminate client sessions for Pidgin, Gajim, and Adium.

Still (again?) an issue with 3.6.0a
When sending something as simple as <ctrl>-<alt>-a in Adium the receiving side will disconnect within the next 2 seconds.

So a fix was found and is available in 3.6.5?

Bump. This issue is constantly causing issues with over 200 users constantly getting disconnected and auto reconnecting.

Either this or the ~~JM-1421~~ issue is invalid. I'm not sure which one.

@Guenther, I do not believe these 2 issues contradict each other. ~~JM-1421~~ is indicating the sender of invalid XML should be disconnected. In the case of this bug OF-91, invalid XML is sent and the recipient is disconnected.
