General suggestions with viruses:
1) switch to safe mode and then do a system scan
2) pull the hard drive and scan the hard drive in another computer
(after making sure that the other computer doesn't auto-run files on
external hard drives)
3) Try 1 and 2 with multiple virus scanners:

Could it simply be a virus/trojan/worm that's designed to send messages
using the IM URIs (like aim:, etc.) - and if Pidgin's set to handle those
URIs, it's used to send the messages?
If that was the case, I'd wonder if 'disabling' the URIs would cause the
messages to stop.
