 Replying to [comment:1 baijiu]:
 > This issue has been reported quite a few times in different tickets, all
 with the same error message sent back by the server:
 >
 > "尊敬的用户,您的QQ版本已经停止使用,请到http://im.qq.com下载并安装最新的QQ版本。给您带来不便,敬请谅解!"
 >
 > Which more or less translates as:
 >
 > "Dear user, support for your QQ version has been discontinued, please
 download and install the latest QQ version from http://im.qq.com. Our
 apologies for any inconveniences."
 >
 > Every time I correctly fill out the captcha it returns the same error.
 On line 99 of tafelpoot's log it says "Failed captcha verification" but as
 the Chinese error message suggests, it seems to be a version not supported
 rather than a captcha issue. This is what happens with Pidgin set to use
 QQ2008 and QQ2007. When I use QQ2005 the same Chinese error message
 appears immediately without the captcha window popping up. I also tried to
 manually select each of the tcpconn.tencent.com (1 to 6) servers, but to
 no avail. All of the sz.tencent.com (1 to 9) servers seem even less useful
 as they all immediately return a "connection refused" error message.

 > As I understand it, the patch in ticket
 [http://developer.pidgin.im/ticket/11635/ 11635] set for the 2.7.10
 release merely makes QQ2008 rather than QQ2005 the default version, which
 would not resolve this issue as QQ2008 now seems to be facing the same
 problems.

 After three or four times I somehow would magically log in. Since
 yesterday however, QQ won't log in even if I fill in the captcha fifty
 times.

 As commented by baijiu I also experience the "magical captcha login".
 Until recently filling in the captcha a couple times made the client login
 successfully. The "your QQ version has been discontinued" message is the
 actual problem and, I believe, is not or little related with the captcha's
 (correct me if I'm wrong) since I get them every time I connect for the
 last year.
