Interestingly, Pidgin is also experiencing the same error, reporting the problem as "Received unexpected response from https://api.screenname.aol.com/auth/clientLogin;. Empathy didn't specify what the problem was. On the basis of that error, I ran Wireshark and watched the login attempt.

I have verified that my accounts are still valid: they successfully connect using the website Meebo. It is interesting that both Empathy and Pidgin are suddenly experiencing the same error. Thinking that the bug must be on AOL's side, I checked with other (non-Fedora) Empathy/Pidgin users, but haven't been able to find anyone else who could reproduce the bug.

I realize that this bug report may not be exactly the right one but for those experiencing this issue for only the last few days (people reporting here since the 18th) it does seem that login.oscar.aol.com port 5190 no longer accepts SSL connections. Unchecking Use SSL will allow login. Of course those of us using SSL would prefer to keep using it, but there does not seem to be any workarounds that I have been able to find. It is true that newer versions of pidgin supposedly have this fixed.
