| I've had that happen in Pidgin also on my GNU/Linux systems. When I've checked my profile on Windows Live, I've noticed that the request was actually on there and somehow the MSN protocol was pushing that out to my Pidgin or Adium client. I imagine that the Windows Live Messenger also manages this better, but seeing as that's Windows only it poses a problem for me.
Once I got into my Windows Live profile and saw the request, I cancelled it from the site itself and it stopped showing up on my IM client.
