See: <https://pidgin.im/pipermail/support/2014-November/028323.html>

Basically, the use of Pidgin is not approved by Microsoft and they 
haven't issued it with an authorised application ID.  To get round this 
it pretends to be one of Microsoft's own clients.  Microsoft have now 
blacklisted that client.


In any case, Microsoft could turn off MSN permanently, at least outside 
of China, at any time now.
