 I've used Pidgin for months now without any problems but now I can't
 connect.

 I've tried Pidgin with creep.im and exploit.im

 I've tried removing Pidgin and reinstalling it.

 I keep getting the error: "Lost connection with server: remote host closed
 connection"

 I've turned off Windows firewall and that did nothing.

 Javascript is enabled but Java is disabled (Java is not compatible with
 all major browsers anymore) - Not sure if that has anything to do with it.

 Any ideas why it can't connect?

 Thanks
