New description:

 After seeing the pop up alerting me that there is a new version available,
 I downloaded 2.7.0 and went to install.
 Everything was fine up until a pop up came up saying:
 ---------------------------
 Pidgin 2.7.0 Setup
 ---------------------------
 Error Downloading the GTK+ Runtime :
 http://pidgin.im/win32/download_redir.php?version=2.7.0&gtk_version=2.16.6.0&dl_pkg=gtk
 ---------------------------
 Retry   Cancel
 ---------------------------

 Retry does nothing, cancel continues installation of Pidgin but when I try
 to run it, another pop-up comes up:
 ---------------------------
 pidgin.exe - System Error
 ---------------------------
 The program can't start because libatk-1.0-0.dll is missing from your
 computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem.
 ---------------------------
 OK
 ---------------------------
 After clicking OK, this pop up comes up:
 ---------------------------
 Error
 ---------------------------
 Error loading pidgin.dll.
 Error: (126) The specified module could not be found.

 This probably means that GTK+ can't be found.
 ---------------------------
 OK
 ---------------------------

 I tried running as administrator, thinking there might have been some
 permissions problems, but it did the same thing.
 I'm running on an Intel Core 2 Duo processor, with 4gb memory and Windows
 7 Ultimate.
