Comment:

 Hello datallah!
 Oh, sorry- twice. First, I won't hurt your brain: Sorry for my Pidgin-
 English ;-).
 Secondly, I won't send two attachments of the pidgin.rpt, but I can't
 delete them. It was a "500 Internal Server Error" and I thought that the
 file is not on the server.


 ----

 I try a short form:

 Only '''a)''' is important, because it the crash- one '''b)''' is my
 opinion or a kind of suggestion? and '''c)''' is nothing for your head, if
 it hurts

 ----


 '''a)''' I have crashes by login in to my Jabber-Account, I hope you'll
 see it in the reports.

 '''b)''' I know that there is no Plug-in for OTR or enryption now (that's
 a pitty, if there is a final-version - but that's only my opinion).
 Therefore I don't use any old Plug-in, because it won't run - I think.
 Perhaps the offical version (non-beta-one) should be a final version, if
 there is one. That's my suggestion. I think it is an important strength of
 Pidgin, isn't it?
 I'll use gaim2.0b6 still there is one.

 '''c)''' I tried out the final version Pidgin2.0.0.exe. Bevore existing
 any final version I tried also the Pidgin2.0.0Beta7. Both without any
 encyption - because I know there is no Plug-in at the moment. I was only
 suprised: At first I didn't deinstalled gaim. In the beta-version I could
 speak to my accounts from gaim2b6 to pidgin2b7 (without any encryption),
 because pidgin-installation didn't destroy my gaim installation. I was
 happy about it, because I could see the new functions and all windows
 twice (gaim and pidgin). The installation of the final Pidgin deleted the
 gaim-installation - that was my surprising.


 But,... I also deinstalled all kind of programs (gaimBeta, PidginBeta,
 PidginFinal and gtk to re-install PidginFinal with gtk - I  thought that
 the crashes would be there because of the other programs, so - in the end
 - that the installation of the final one would bei a clean-installation.

 Thanks of supporting in spite of my chaos. Maybe I use to much formatting
 inside or write to strange. I try to help you as much as possible to find
 the crash of Pidgin, but won't produce headaches,
 best wishes
