 Hi,

 I'm a old Pidgin (Windows) user, I love it and I recomend it for my
 friends.

 This last update (2.5.3) shows me a crash in some computers when trying to
 connect MSN protocol. I see that the problem occurs often when the buddy
 list have many contacts.

 Pidgin crashes (dissapears) and Dr.Watson sends a error (not important).
 I`ve made a log (pidgin.exe -d 2>%1 > "%USERPROFILE%\debug.log").

 The log is attached.



 Some other important details:
 OS: Windows NT 5.1.2600 sp2 (popular XP - installed yesterday, without
 errors)
 Logged as Administrator user (no other users)
 Using on Acer notebook Aspire S570Z.

 I`ve installed Windows Live Messenger now, it logged and worked. Pidgin is
 better.

 Very important:
 When trying to log with a MSN account with few contacts in buddy list it
 worked. It only crashes only when logging with a big contact list account.
 Do I need to exclude some contacts?
