The server certificates don't seem to include the full certificate 
chain, so I think you will need to install the pem file for MSIT Machine 
Authority CA-2.  Doing so may be more important than correcting the 
expired certificate.  (I'm wondering if Pidgin is ignoring expiry dates.)

The immediate signer of an earlier certificate was Microsoft Secure 
Server  Authority, which is known to Pidgin, but also expired in 
February 2011.
