Comment (by rlaager):

 Replying to [comment:5 iperez]:
 > I am a new member to the Pidgin site.  I work for a law enforcement
 agency in Orange County CA.  I have a gang violence case involving MySpace
 and MySpace chat logs.  However, none of our current forensic software has
 the ability to parse these logs.  I happened to surf to this site via
 Google and would like to use the Pidgin software to parse these chat logs.
 What are the steps to do this?  I cannot log into Pidgin with a username
 since these logs must remain confidential.  Thank you for your help.

 This ticket is a request for such support to be added to Pidgin. It does
 not currently have any support for reading MySpace IM logs. That said, I
 finally got around to looking at fmoo's attachments here. The "Sample
 Session Log" is clearly some sort of debugging trace that has a LOT of
 extraneous data. The .txn file is just the message log.

 I'm suspicious that this is even a legitimate story, but on the off chance
 it is, open the file in a regular old text editor and read it.
