New description:

 I have been using Pidgin for over a year now with the same AIM account and
 within the last few days I am experiencing a very strange issue. I keep
 getting kicked offline and getting a message telling me that my account
 has been disabled due to signing in at another location when I actually
 haven't signed in at another location. From there, Pidgin will not let me
 re-anable my account until about half hour to an hour later but while I
 try to reanable it I receive messages saying that it can't for "unknown
 reasons". When I sign into AIM via Pidgin using a different screenname, it
 allows me to sign in but people that I know are online are listed as
 offline or it will show me that they are online and if they try to IM me
 they get a message saying I'm not logged in when it shows them that I am.
 Also, during one of these "episodes", my password was randomly changed
 however I was never sent an email about it. I was kicked off of AIM while
 using Pidgin and when I immediately went to sign back in I received a
 message saying invalid password. This required me to then go and changed a
 lot of information with AIM/AOL. I have upgraded to the newest version of
 Pidgin and am still experiencing this issue.
