 pidgin will never STOP being idle until I restart pidgin.

 I'm having the exact same problem, Loco.

 Nor does basing Idle status on either keyboard/mouse use or sent IMs make
 a difference -- at best, Pidgin's idle-status function is inconsistent,
 and most of the time it's nonresponsive. I currently have it set to
 "Never" b/c otherwise no one knows I'm at my computer.

 Hopefully they'll be able to sort out this bug for the next release, if
 not 2.5 then perhaps 2.5.1.

 Using Pidgin 2.4.2 on WinXP, connecting only to the AOL/Oscar protocol.
