Comment:

 pidgin does not steal focus, it may ask that the user be informed of a
 change though (which some, I think stupid, windowing environments
 interpret as 'give me focus now' and so they do).

 Something is requesting that pidgin focus itself. Either some action you
 are taking, some plugin you have loaded, or some other interaction. You
 need to find out what.
