 TLS. It was working with beta 4.

 just fine on that one.

 I have installed (since I use an old mandrake and I have installed some
 fc4 rpms I found on the net). Can you tell me how to check if Pidgin is
 able to use TLS libs?

 I don't know if this is the same issue that the original reporter was
 experiencing, but your problem is that you need to install some SASL
 modules. Pidgin is compiled with Cyrus SASL support, but you don't have
 any appropriate modules.
