I accidently Deleted my iChat from my iMac, I went to apple.com to download it but they have the older version that will not install on Intel iMac's any clues?

Now a new question has popped up, iChat keeps saying unexpected loss of host, waht the iChat port numbers so I can unblock them.

In the Server settings all the OSCAR accounts (AIM, ICQ, and .Mac) I have, say: Port "5190"
My Google Talk/Jabber account uses Port 5223
It doesn't say for Bonjour
They should set up Automatically, just make Bonjour uses your "Computer Name"

Pacifist (http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/6812)allows you to re-install single applications from your OS X install disk.
