I have been using Pidgin happily for several months with ICQ, AIM, Google Talk, MSN (live.com), Skype and Yahoo accounts. I suddenly started getting disconnected randomly and constantly from all accounts except for Skype with no ability to reconnect. Sometimes it is on account, other times four accounts. There appears to be no rhyme or reason. I uninstalled the entire program, plus GTK and deleted the .purple directories. On a fresh installation the same thing happens. The only relief was after on computer restart - all accounts worked for about an hour before the disconnects started This was before the fresh installation. I tested all accounts from their native programs, or web interfaces. They all worked fine even while Pidgin reported unable to connect. I also tried with Zone Alarm disabled - this made no difference. I would hate to give this program up! I really liked it! Google (XMPP) was a particularly nasty one-but worked fine on the Google website interface. Then suddenly, it is up and running after a day. I can attached my debug log. I also posted a ticket but got no response. Any ideas?
