Hi Ari Re: I loaded all plugins one at a time and Pidgin works fine.
This is what I did: To preserve my Pidgin setup, contacts, blist etc I actually moved just the pref.xml file out of the way, and kept the /.pidgin folder untouched. I then loaded all plugins one at a time and Pidgin still performed well. Then I edited the new pref.xml file to only contain the plugins of my original file (only 18 plugins). Pidgin now runs without problems so far. To me this suggests that my prefs.xml file was corrupted in some other way than by some plugin. regards Arnfinn
