[Bug 1050974] [NEW] block users erased empathy

[ShaneBill]

Public bug reported:

I discovered a strange bug in Empathy (it could have already been
repaired though).

Useful information:

* Empathy starts up automatically when I log in
* Most of the time is starts as Unavailable or Away (I think it restores the last state)
* MSN chat

Problem:

Here's what happens

* Get contacted by a spammer
* Open Blocked Contacts list
* Click on the window to view spam
* Choose Contact->Block contact from chat window

It actually erases (usually) one or two other entries in the Blocked
Contacts that were already there. Thus I end up getting contacted from
other spammers. I couldn't figure out what was going on for the longest
time until I saw that. If I add them manually to the Blocked Contacts
list it seems fine.

Sorry I realize it's a bizaro issue to report but there you have it.
