Pedro,
I launched pidgin with valgrind as per directions.
While using it, it suddenly became unresponsive. Typical white and grey
window, no more text or anything rendered. Pidgin icon disappeared from the
gnome menu.
After a while, I killed it.
Please find attached the collected valgrind report, it seems that several
memory leaks are present.
Let me know if this is useful!
