Do you have the Developer tools installed? If so.
Set the option the way that you want it.
Then "Control" click on the "iChat.app" application in your Applications folder.
Choose "Show Package Contents", then navigate to "Contents:Resources:English.lproj
refs_MsgCompose.nib". Make a backup of it, in case this does not work. If you double-click it, it will open in "Interface Editor". Find the checkbox and delete it.
Restart iChat and see if it works.
