This is a known issue.
- Go to pidgin.im
- click "DOWNLOAD" at the top of the page menu.
- click "Windows" in the left menu
- click the "Download Pidgin - 2.7.0 for Windows" link in the centre
of the page
That URL is
http://sourceforge.net/projects/pidgin/files/Pidgin/pidgin-2.7.0-offline.exe
you can click it here in the mail too (generally you should not click links
in email messages you get from strrangers ;-) ).
Run that installer and you should be all set.

Hi,
I've been using Pidgin for over a year now, and have been able to
successfully update and access it it before now. I tried to download
the 2.7.0 update, but received the "Error Installing GTK+ Runtime"
message. I followed the instructions in the FAQ, and shut down all
applications, but I'm still receiving this message. If anyone could
help, that'd be great. Thanks a lot.
Jimmie
