Comment(by kungfujoe):

 I reported success too soon..  Gparent's libpurple.dll from a few days ago
 did not fix the crashes on my XP SP3 (32-bit) system, so it does not
 resolve all of the problems in XP.  The first few exits I tried did not
 crash, but I've had it crash twice since then.  I don't have an "NLA
 Service" to disable (I assume atlantis is talking about Windows
 services?), or I'd try that.  I'll also point out again that this problem
 predates 2.5.3, though it obviously didn't affect as many users before.  I
 was having this problem with at least 2.5.2, and hoped that upgrading
 would fix it.
