 I'm an ICQ user and whenever I start pidgin I get this error message on
 startup:
 "Unable to add the buddy 1 for an unknown reason."

 I think I read somewhere that this happens on some very old ICQ accounts.
 It annoyed me so much that I removed the message entirely from
 libpurple/protocols/oscar/oscar.c. Now it doesn't appear and Pidgin still
 run perfectly.
 Removing the message entirely is probably not the best solution, but I
 really think you should do something about it.
