Comment (by I4ko):

 It's looks much more like a protocol/icq client related bug now.

 elb:
 Both official ICQ6 and unofficial client (QIP) do not show Pidgin's away
 messages, either preset in english (latin) or custom (cyrillic).
 Official localized ICQ 5.1 abv.bg show predefined message in
 client(itself) for pidgin away and does not show custom text also.

 Pidgin to pidgin seems ok (tested on the same app, icq uin added as buddy
 in aim account).
 Pidgin does not show at all ICQ6 status, either custom or preset. QIP
 shows only latin ICQ6 statuses.
 Pidgin shows correctly ICQ 5.1 abv.bg status in latin.

 Custom status set in QIP shows ok in ICQ 5.1 abv.bg, both latin and
 cyrillic, but does not show in ICQ6.

 jabber does not seem to be affected.

 seanegan: This seem like a predefined messages to me, but the build I got
 today after install had predefined messages in english. May be because
 it's not a clean install as I had a generic ICQ 5.1 before and some
 registry entries were not deleted as i had a list with the custom statuses
 I used.

 I'm testing with these clients since majority of windows users in Bulgaria
 are on ICQ 5.1 abv, most ot the rest on QIP, and just a few on ICQ6,
 miranda, trilian...
 Pidgin and old version of gaim are used by the linux/unix folks.
