 Every time I bring my computer out of standby, or the network connection
 gets repaired / disconnected and reconnected, Pidgin SSL Certificate
 Validation popup windows pop up all over my screen.  Once for each IM
 account I have set up.

 Clicking ACCEPT makes them go away, but they just come back later.
 They even do it at random when the network is 100% stable.

 As you can imagine, these pidgin windows popping up all the time all over
 the place is annoying as hell, and renders the application so annoying its
 useless.

 Modal Dialog box looks like this:

 | Accept certificate for __________________?                    |
 | The certifiate for ________________ could not be validated    |
 | The certificate is not valid yet.                             |
 |                                                               |
 |     View Certificate     /   Reject    /    Accept            |
 |                                                               |

 Apparently they are not getting saved, are write protected, or
 something else is going on, because clicking Accept is not accepting
 them permanently.  I'm logged in under an Administrator account in Widnows
