 Pidgin is repeatedly disconnecting from MSN and Yahoo on my computer.
 Sometimes it cites interference from other software on my computer,
 sometimes it gives a writing error and fails to reconnect. Two questions:
 Is it possible to set it to automatically reconnect (and how, if so) and
 what software can interfere? I'm using Avast Antivirus and Windows
 Defender on Vista Ultimate.
