Is there any particular reason that pidgin doesn't use the existing
Windows certificate store? This would seem to alleviate the need to
juggle with certificates manually.
Or did I miss part of the plot here?

some info about the new Root CA and Intermediate CA certs that Google
are rolling out. On Pidgin on Windows we don't include the new "Google
Trust Services" ca-cert, so it'll keep bugging you about it

Very weird. Well, maybe not: if it's ONE server, maybe load is
higher in the evening, so that server gets pressed into action, goes
idle eventually? If there's some sort of client-server persistence,
then that might continue until that server goes idle again and gets
dropped from the cluster. Of course I'm making this up as I go
along, but it does fit the symptoms...

I am still getting those popups.
Why wouldn't Pidgin remember the accepted certificate?
