MacOS – How to disable iChat’s popup “You are not connected to the internet”

ichatmacmacbook promacos

I am tired of seeing the "You are not connected to the internet" message from iChat every time after I open my macbook. I use iChat for screen sharing. Is it possible to disable the annoying popup or should I just use another app for messaging and screen sharing?

You should probably use another app for screensharing and messaging. If you choose to do this, I reccomend Adium for messaging and TeamViewer for screensharing. I searched the contents of the whole iChat application, and I couldn't find anything, which leads me to believe that the pop up (I've had it too) is not actually part of the iChat application, but used by iChat.
