Hi guys,
I was using Pidgin successfully on my new laptop for the last 2 weeks, and today an upgrade to 5.5 was required as ICQ stopped connecting. I upgraded, and needless to say, I cannot connect to any services through Pidgin. Thinking it might just be the new upgrade, I tried Digsby, and I got the same errors. It was an authentication error. Trillian is even giving me the same thing.
I tried the ICQ client as a standalone and this worked, which I find odd being as nothing else is working. Is anybody using Vista 64 and having problems with these clients at all? I checked my firewall and none of these apps are blocked.
For a lil background, I'm using a Sony Vaio vgn-fw373j
# 2.4 Ghz (T9800) Intel® Core? 2 Duo Processor
# 1066Mhz Front Side Bus Speed
