 '''Reproducing'''

 1. Launch Pidgin and log in using your MSN account (I have not tested if
 this effects other protocols as well).

 2. Change your buddy icon to [http://harbin.freepgs.com/img/large_icon.png
 this] or [http://harbin.freepgs.com/img/large_icon.jpg this] (notice that
 buddy icon thumbnail on the bottom of the main window is not drawn
 properly, see [http://harbin.freepgs.com/img/thumbnail_bug.png this
 picture]). Thumbnail bug nor freeze do not occur with
 [http://harbin.freepgs.com/img/small_icon.png this] picture which is
 resized version of the larger PNG picture.

 3. Try to open account management window (Ctrl+A)

 4. Pidgin becomes unreponding

 '''Other'''

 - Tested using Pidgin 2.3.1 (both debug and non-debug version) under
 Windows XP Pro SP2

 - No additional information is being displayed in Debug Window (it freezes
 too)

 - No call stack is being dumped
