Hi everyone, I'm writing to you for the first time. I just wanted to ''notify" (although I suppose that everyone knows that already) that pidgin, even though it is *THE BEST* IM program that I have seen (and i've been using quite a few of them), has one big... no, not big... HUUUUUUUUUUUGE flaw... Namely (for win users) go to folder: C:\Users\<USERNAME>\AppData\Roaming\.purple\ and open file named: *accounts.xml* Unfortunately you (and everyone else that has access to your computer) will be able to *SEE ALL OF YOUR USERNAMES AND PASSWORDS KEPT NON-ENCRYPTED IN .XML FILE.* (sorry for the capital letters, but I wanted to emphasize the magnitude of the problem) It is totally unnecessary to explain why it is a problem, I just wanted to know if there is any plan for the issue to be resolved in the near future, as I noticed it in even in early 2.xx versions and it haven't been addressed throughout the versions (today i am using 2.6.3).
Best regards, Pavle Zivkovic
