Yeah, you didn't turn autorun off.  This is a half bug.  (well, maybe 2/3 :P )  The whole point of autorun is to run while chatting, so it needs to stay on there.  You never turned it off.  That being said, I need to come up with some odd way to detect when you are pressing a key to kill it and when you just want to add to it.  (ex:  jumpping or turning)

I blame Bereror.  :P  He noted that it did stop when clicking the chat window, so I made a quick fix.  ;)

On a related issue, this 'quick fix' seems to have done the opposite to the Linux client.  While in autorun mode, if I click on anything, or hit return to enter the chat box, my char stops running.  This is new to the linux client.  I used to be able to chat while walking or running.  This is an annoyance I guess more than a bug as it's not very realistic to be chatting while running, but it was fixed for the windows client apparently so it would be nice if it was fixed for the Linux one as well :D

As DaveG said, you can blame me :P

The Linux client was built before DaveG made the quick fix. What I noted was exactly what you are experiencing. It is now fixed for all the clients that we support.

It's more intuitive in CVS now.  We'll post an update with it at some point.
