 How do I run multiple instances of Pidgin on Windows?

 Pidgin will, by default, prevent multiple instances from running
 simultaneously. You can override this restriction by defining the
 PIDGIN_MULTI_INST environment variable. If you do this, you may find the
 -c parameter useful to specify unique configuration directories for each
 instance (e.g. -c c:\home\.pidgin-alt).
