Pidgin logs folder is nested

[Glen Haber]

I was looking through the logs directory on my computer (both of them, 
actually. One is running Vista Home Premium and the other is running 
Windows 7 RC) and I noticed something odd.  Inside my logs directory, 
there is another folder called logs.  This nesting actually continues 
for 8 levels.  .purple\logs\logs\logs\logs\logs\logs\logs\logs\aim is a 
folder on my computer!

I was wondering exactly why this happens and if there is any reason to 
keep the nested folders.  It seems that there are multiple copies of 
many of my logs this way.  The existence of these nested log folders 
adds 44.3MB

Thanks in advance,
