I just tried to download and get the same issue. The URLs I followed were: http://pidgin.im/ http://sourceforge.net/projects/pidgin/files/Pidgin/pidgin-2.7.0.exe http://surfnet.dl.sourceforge.net/project/pidgin/Pidgin/2.7.0/pidgin-2.7 .0.exe I got a 8.7 MB big file. During installation I get this: --------------------------- Pidgin 2.7.0 Setup --------------------------- Error Downloading the GTK+ Runtime : http://pidgin.im/win32/download_redir.php?version=2.7.0>k_version=2.16 .6.0&dl_pkg=gtk --------------------------- Retry Cancel --------------------------- Another thing: After this error the install continues, giving an unusable Pidgin installation. Wouldn't it be better to abort the installation if GTK can not be downloaded? And last: waht is the URL of the working setup?
