New description:

 I am using 64-bit Windows 7 Professional.  I have noticed that Pidgin
 almost always crashes when I unlock my desktop after being away for a
 while.

 When I originally filed the ticket it seemed like this was a global
 problem, but it clearly seems related to Facebook XMPP now.

 My "Status/Idle" settings are:
  * Report idle time: Never
  * Minutes before becoming idle: 10
  * Change to this status when idle: (Checked) Offline

 I only have two plugins enabled:
  * Release notification 2.6.6
  * Windows Pidgin Options 2.6.6 (no features enabled)

 Facebook account settings:
  * Protocol: XMPP
  * Domain: chat.facebook.com
  * Resource: pidgin
  * Remember password: checked
  * Local alias: jim/fb
  * New mail notifications: NOT checked
  * No custom buddy icon
  * Require SSL/TLS: NOT checked
  * Force old (port 5223) SSL: NOT checked
  * Allow plaintext auth over unencrypted streams: checked
  * Connect port: 5222
  * Connect server: chat.facebook.com
  * File transfer proxies: proxy.eu.jabber.org (WTF?)
  * BOSH URL: (empty)
  * No custom smileys
  * Proxy tab says No proxy


 Last time this crashed I found this in the Event Viewer:
 {{{
 Faulting application name: pidgin.exe, version: 2.6.6.0, time stamp:
 0x4b7aa615
 Faulting module name: libsasl.dll, version: 2.1.22.0, time stamp:
 0x46e9c17d
 Exception code: 0xc0000005
 Fault offset: 0x00007e61
 Faulting process id: 0x758
 Faulting application start time: 0x01cac5357ad2da66
 Faulting application path: C:\Program Files (x86)\Pidgin\pidgin.exe
 Faulting module path: C:\Program Files (x86)\Pidgin\libsasl.dll
 Report Id: 70482af6-3132-11df-b1fd-0024e841039b
 }}}

 The other crashes show up with similar results (process ID changes of
 course but the "Fault offset" and "Faulting module" and "Exception code"
 are the same.)

 Since then I've installed the debug build and will see if it keeps
 happening, or if there are log files available next time it happens.
