Comment (by MTWirth):

 I had Pidgin 2.0 running fine on a Windows Vista Ultimate 32-bit.  I
 previously had GAIM 2.0 beta 6 on that machine and "upgraded" when I
 installed Pidgin 2.0.  It worked fine.

 However, I installed Pidgin 2.0 on a new machine with no previous
 install/upgrade from GAIM and would crash whenever I added Yahoo.  I
 copied the following files from the "working" machine C:\Users\{Login
 Name}\AppData\Roaming\.purple\accels, accounts.xml, blist.xml,
 pounces.xml, prefs.xml and status.xml to the "non-working" machine and was
 able to start up Pidgin and Yahoo successfully logged in on the machine
 that was previously not working.
