@Joey,

This is almost certainly provided as a 3rd party plugin.  I would assume
it's the version bundled with the "Purple Plugin Pack", however there is no
obvious download location for Windows (which I assume all of your clients
use) so you should locate groupmsg.dll on a computer that already has this
installed and copy it to the other computers.  It can be found in the
32-bit Program Files directory under Pidgin\plugins.

In the mean time if you find an official win32 mirror of this plugin, let
me know and I'd be happy to test it out.
