 Running pigdin on xp aswell as ubuntu gutsy and other distros I am seeing
 a condition which is causing incredibly high memory usage in the
 175-250meg range. Restarting program does not solve it. It doesn't happen
 all the time (6 out of 10 times I start the program) Only a complete
 system restart will solve it in both instances. Once that takes place,
 it's hit or miss on the memory consumption. This problem even arises when
 there are no conversations taking place, just at idle. I've been trying to
 recreate it but I'm not quite sure what causes it. 4 Aim accounts, 2 MSN
 Accounts, 1 Yahoo and one ICQ are running. System is a Core Duo 2ghz w/
 2gb of ram.
