Comment(by LeonLanford):

 I've been using pidgin for more than one year then I got this problem for
 the first time 2 weeks ago, my cousin and friend also experiencing the
 same problem, I thought upgrading pidgin to 2.5.6 solve the problem but
 it's not. So today I searched about the problem and fixed the problem by
 changing the server to cs102.msg.mud.yahoo.com, pidgin should've updated
 the default server to cs102.msg.mud.yahoo.com in the next release
