I had this problem last night but not this morning.  I noticed my system began 
running sluggish and I saw my processor graph at 100% so I opened up system 
monitor and was shocked to see pidgin at 300% and then later 400% processor 
usage.  I could not exit pidgin normally, I had to kill it each time and it 
would do the same thing every time it was started.  I ran strace and saw the 
same thing as abulyomon.  I also redirected the output to a file and instead of 
what was displayed in strace, it simply printed the following:
(pidgin:9000): pidgin-libnotify-plugin-DEBUG: Successfully wrote blacklist file 
to 
/home/bananaman/.config/indicators/messages/applications-blacklist/pidgin-libnotify

I closed the program named "heart" and everything seemed to return to
normal so it seems heart was the trigger.

Ubuntu: 9.10
Kernel: 2.6.31-14-generic
Pidgin: 2.6.2
Motherboard: Asus M4N82 Deluxe
Processor: Phenom II X4 955 Black Edition

Attachment: picture or running processes at the time of incident.
