 When I try to paste the attached text (in which I am babbling in hungarian
 about how linux pipes work with stderr and stdout :) ), then winpidgin
 freezes with 100%cpu usage on one core...

 If I paste the text to any contact (MSN and ICQ and GTALK tested), then
 nothing bad happens ... Then I press ctrl+shift+home to select the whole
 text, press ctrl+x and then ctrl+v - and then pidgin the conversation
 window looks strange, and pidgin freezes...

 I Couldn't make call stack with the windows-debug version, because pidgin
 doesn't crash, it just uses 100%cpu :S

 The last debug entries in the debug.log file if I pipe the debuglog to a
 file:

 (00:56:29) prefs: /pidgin/conversations/toolbar/wide changed, scheduling
 save.
 (00:56:29) win32placement: Window RECT: L:618 R:1277 T:300 B:741
 (00:56:29) wpurple: This version of user32 contains MonitorFromWindow
 (00:56:29) wpurple: This version of user32 contains GetMonitorInfoA

 See attached files for details...

 bye,
 Zsolt

 ps> actually, I just tested... pasting the following text also freezes
 pidgin (paste - nothing happens. then select all, cut and paste - pidgin
 freezes)
