I ran into this problem too.
Seems to be in the gnutls plugin. First it happened yesterday evening. I use 
Ubuntu 8.04, todday I have updated my pidgin to the newest version. I have 
removed the ssl-gnutls plugin, and the problem does not appear any more. But I 
also cant connect to MSN, because it needs ssl support.
  I start it with 'pidgin --debug', it runs normally, until a message appears 
similar to the following:

(09:31:22) gnutls: receive failed: A TLS packet with unexpected length was 
received.
(09:31:22) soap: read: Input/output error
(09:31:22) xmlnode: Error parsing xml file: Document is empty
(09:31:22) xmlnode: Error parsing xml file: Start tag expected, '<' not found
(09:31:22) soap: Malformed SOAP response:
(09:31:22) g_log: purple_ssl_read: assertion `gsc != NULL' failed
(09:31:22) xmlnode: Error parsing xml file: Document is empty
(09:31:22) xmlnode: Error parsing xml file: Start tag expected, '<' not found
(09:31:22) soap: Malformed SOAP response:

After that pidgin uses 100% on 1 CPU. I have dual core, so computer is 
responsive.
I have attached 3 log fragments in one .txt file.
