#7621: MSN Protocol crashing since 16 months
---------------------+------------------------------------------------------

Component:  MSN      |   Version:  2.5.2

---------------------+------------------------------------------------------
 I am using libpurple with a chatbot since about 16 months. During all this
 time, the MSN plug-in is causing crashes (maybe due to the heavy load, but
 the AIM protocol is stable).

 A dump of the latest crash:

 glib: double free or corrupt memory

 Program terminated with signal 6, Aborted.

 I deactivated this protocol now. I think it needs some serious work to be
 done.
