 After staying on AIM for a while, and at certain times after opening a box
 and sending a message to a user that's away, AIM logs off, and says You
 have signed in from another location. If you try to reconnect, it says
 "authentication failed".

 I have shutdown pidgin and restarted, but it seems to be a time
 restriction, usually takes at least 5 minutes before you can get back on
 .

 This is with Windows XP Home edition

 Usually only after first message is sent on aim, if that person has been
 idle, and you've also been idle.. This may vary.
