Hi!

Using Pidgin 2.6.6 on WinXP , whil in an IRC channel, somebody
poste along URL.

Pidgin displayed it, but it recognised only part of it (from the beginning
to somewhere in have).

So the URL was displaye entirely, but the clickable part was just a part of it.


Simplified example:

http://foo.bar.com/apple/orange/banana

Pidgin underscored only the part 
http://foo.bar.com/apple/or 
whil "ange/banana" was regular text.
After clicking, only the partial URL was provided to the web browser.


The actual URL that was used is:

http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash1/hs469.ash1/25762_386299217567_713332567_4101869_4001374_n.jpg

It was underlined to the part before "7_4101869_4001374_n.jpg".
