 I have 7 accounts in pidgin, 2 IRC, 3 GTalk, 1 Bonjour and 1 Facebook. All
 but the Bonjour account connects through a SOCKS proxy (SSH-tunnel).
 Suddenly this morning no accounts except the Bonjour and the Facebook
 accounts could connect. Opening the debug window setting it to ALL
 returned this output for a GTalk account:

 I have tried using two different SOCKS proxies (linux and Mac OS X
 respectively) that both usually have no problems, with the same result.
