#13369: Pidgin crash when typing in and/or copy pasting a particular link

Component:  AIM            |   Version:  2.7.10     
 Keywords:  crash, freeze  |  
---------------------------+------------------------------------------------
 I wish I had more useful information to give, but this produces no output
 from the terminal and a backtrace also revealed no information. :(

 OS: Arch Linux x86_64 (fully updated)
 DE: KDE 4.6.0
 Intel i5 430M Processor

 Basically I was copy/pasting a link to a message board, the full link is
 this (no quotations)

 "http://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/197339-final-fantasy-tactics"

 Copy/pasting that into the message box would cause a crash/freeze 100% of
 the time, and when I tried manually typing it in, it would crash/freeze
 100% of the time when I entered the first "t".

 I could type all the way up to "http://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/197339
 -final-fantasy-" without a crash, but as soon as the "t" is entered the
 crash occurs. Pidgin hangs and won't do anything then eventually I get the
 generic application is not being responsive message and I close it out.
