This isnt a solution but i find that typing // is alot easy and quicker (and youll probably find easier to get used to and remember to do) than to relearn to type a .
A further (and more extreme) option is to go to Plus! > Preferences > Instant Messages > Commands and Tags and then uncheck the box "Allow the use of commands and tags" however in my opinion this removes alot of plus!'s functionality and is a rather drastic way to get around this, i would only really recommend this if your emoticons are more important to your IMing than plus!
thanks for all suggestions, but the double / it's easier for now
I also hope it's easy for Patchou to "fix" it
