Comment(by SamuelRiv):

 I have been experiencing this problem (Win XP SP2, Pidgin 2.6.2, simple
 home wireless network) in which I would suddenly not be able to join AIM
 chat and with no visible error messages for the rest of an online session.
 I found that a basic ''ipconfig /flushdns'' entry in the command prompt
 was enough to get it working without having to restart Pidgin or the
 network connection. I would have to verify this fix more times, but maybe
 it will help those developers working on the problem.
