Fw: Pidgin Help

[Tres Finocchiaro]

@Jennifer,

XMPP is normal in this case.

Your may have something blocking your connection.

Can you try this:

   1. Accounts, Manage Accounts
   2. Modify
   3. Advanced
   4. Change Connect Port to 80
   5. Save
   6. Uncheck it and recheck the checkbox

This has helped me in the past when having problems connecting to Google
Talk behind a firewall or proxy.
