Comment(by darkrain42):

 Replying to [comment:8 shs_bulldog]:
 > I copied the libpurple.dll into my directory and then when I started
 pidgin it wouldn't connect because it said the certificate on the server
 was no valid.  I deleted the account and tried to recreate it.  After I
 typed in my settings and hit save, Pidgin crashed.  I tried several times,
 same result, so I ended up downgrading to 2.5.8 which works fine.

 It would be good to see a crash report for this (install the debug
 version, see [wiki:TipsForBugReports]). The 'certificate invalid' error
 probably indicates the certificate is self-signed. See #9971.
