Either that, or there may simply not be much overlap of users who 1) Use 
pidgin, 2) Use Internet Explorer, 3) Download files themselves, 4) Use 
the mailing list or bug tracker, and 5) Have SmartScreen enabled.

When will you remedy the certificate hashing algorithm problem?
Even if people ignore it, it is a serious security flaw on your behalf.


As long as you only download from sourceforge, it is only a minor risk. 
 In fact, by flatly rejecting the signature, Smartscreen is increasing 
the risk by not allowing the use of the level of protection that even 
SHA1 will provide.  With its current behaviour smartscreen looks like it 
is only suitable for use in environments where ignoring a security 
warning is a sacking offence.


Most virus checkers should also check the sumcheck of the file against 
known safe files, as well.

That checksum matches the one for the online installer that I just

Serious Download Issue

Hello Pidgin,
  I was trying to download your program but whenever I make an 
attempt I get directed to a site showing the following:

[cid:image004.jpg@01D0E432.94BF5810]



I tried doing this from various browsers and different tabs but still get the 
same result.  I assume you are aware of this problem since it is a fairly 
serious one given that the program cannot be downloaded but just in case, I 
thought I would send you an email.  The only thing I would appreciate would be 
an email back when the bug has been corrected so that I can download your 
program.  Many thanks.

P.S.  BTW, I am not an advanced IT person-just a run of the mill computer user

Re: Sourceforge pidgin download page blocked by google chrome as malicious

2015-02-24 Thread Ethan Blanton
Philippe VIALLE spake unto us the following wisdom:
 if I may, that's the binary file (Pidgin-2.10.11.exe) that was downloaded
 that seems to get blocked (in fact, local detection of malicious files by
 browser itself).

OK, this is good information, thank you.

The Pidgin Windows installer (typically not Pidgin itself) has been
blocked by quite a few anti-virus and anti-malware apps in the past,
due to the installer package we use (whatever it is) *also* being used
by malware.

Perhaps that's what is going on here.

It is *also* certainly the case that several Pidgin download URLs were
issued to Google in a DMCA takedown notice.  The company that issued
them is now backtracking (possibly due to actual liability for this
act under some European jurisdictions in which both the company in
question and Google have offices), but it may be or become a problem.
It may not be this problem.

Re: Sourceforge pidgin download page blocked by google chrome as malicious

2015-02-24 Thread Philippe VIALLE
Guys,

if I may, that's the binary file (Pidgin-2.10.11.exe) that was downloaded
that seems to get blocked (in fact, local detection of malicious files by
browser itself).

Here is an example of such an alert with a Chrome derivative browser
(Dragon):
[image: Images intégrées 1]

Despite my efforts, I could not reproduce any scenario where this was the
download URL that was blocked, therefore I believe this is a file-based
detection.

Now if you really look at VirusTotal, the Pidgin installer is not supposed
to be fully clean:
https://www.virustotal.com/en/file/2a2c58cba5f9360f5f48cc59ccb5e1f82d59c3cc87a52648e9bd45b3968e10e3/analysis/
- Rising AV repots it as PE:Trojan.Win32.Generic.141A9A33!337287731
- Clam AV detects it as PUA
- Symantec reputation reports a suspicious.insight

This might be due to a detection of screen capture capability (look at
Zemana results), but can't be sure right now, just thinking out loud.
Anyway, I would try to report this to Google, as a potential FP.

My 2 cents,

They all have own software repositories, where they have a copy of pidgin.
It is just, that they did not yet update to pidgin version 2.10.0 but
have the older 2.9.0. (judgung by the web page

So the solution is to wait until RedHat gets the new version, when it wil 
probably be automatically updated on your PC.

But download is not getting started. I am sure this is not browser

Please provide me with an alternative link downloading pidgin for

That is definitely the source code download, which won't do you any good

Re: gtk.zip file download issues

2010-11-09 Thread Etan Reisner
I don't know whether pidgin will correctly look for a non-local GTK+
installation at this point, if it does I don't know the details of that.

pidgin installs GTK+ within the pidgin installation directory and as
Daniel indicated the offline installer comes with the GTK+ zip file
bundled so you don't need to download it separately.

on yes, it does install without any error message, but then, on 
running, it says The program can't start because libatk-1.0-0.dll is 
missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this 
problem.


The another message says Error loading pidgin.dll. Error: (126) The

can't be found.


All this, while gtk+ runtime 2.14.7 rev a is duly appearing in control

the installer doesn't tell me which version of gtk+ runtime it needs 
and which version it is installing, nor the location from where it is 
downloading gtk+ so I can't download it and install it myself.

gtk.zip file download issues

I downloaded latest version, and found that it was downloading 10+ MB 
GTK.zip which took a long time.


However, I could not find where it stored the downloaded file so that 
I save that safely so that I don't need to re-download it if I format

It is suggested to ask for location to save the downloaded file and 
store it there and run from there. Or, providing a link from where 
user can download and install gtk.zip so that we can save it at some 
known place.

 Similarly, is it pidgin that installed C++ redistributable 2005? If so,
 there is 2008 c++ redistributable available that I have to install for a

 Also, please do provide some method for us to know which c++
 redistributable pidgin is using and where does it save that. It is indeed

No, pidgin does not use C++ at all and so will not have been responsible

You will need to re-download it in that case - the download is to a
temporary location and is deleted after the installer is complete.

 It is suggested to ask for location to save the downloaded file and store it
 there and run from there. Or, providing a link from where user can download
 and install gtk.zip so that we can save it at some known place.

If you want a version of the installer that will not need to download
GTK+ if it isn't present, you should use the Offline installer.
There already is a way to accomplish the goal of avoiding several
downloads, there doesn't need to be a change to make the Online
installer more complicated.

Re: Problem to download the GTK+ on installing, see pictures...

2010-05-14 Thread Daniel Atallah
The most common cause of this is that you're behind a proxy that won't
allow the installer to download the required GTK+ runtime.

You can use the offline installer (available from
http://sourceforge.net/downloads/pidgin/Pidgin/2.7.0/pidgin-2.7.0-offline.exe)
which includes the GTK+ runtime in the initial download instead of
downloading it at runtime.

Re: problem with download

2010-01-28 Thread Ethan Blanton
Angie Stewart spake unto us the following wisdom:
 tried to download pidgin to my computer
 for instant messaging for my teenage daughter
 but got an error that told me to email pidgin
 for a new copy of the installation. 
 
 it says
 installer integrity check has failed.common causes
 include incomplete download and damaged media.
 contact installer's author to obtain a new copy.
 
 can you help?

If you got your Pidgin from http://pidgin.im/download/ (or our
Sourceforge download pages), your download was simply not completed
correctly.  Delete the file you downloaded and try again.

If you got it from somewhere else, it is possibly a corrupt file.

Hi Cash.  Sourceforge has been undergoing some maintenance over the
past day or two so some links might have been broken.  Can you try
again, and if you still have problems can you give us the address of
the page that gives you the error 400, and the address of the page
that links to the error 400?

Hi Phyllis.  Sourceforge is making some changes to their file download
system.  I suggest waiting a few hours and trying again.  Or, if
you're looking for the Windows installer you can try this:

About the download

Hi,

Thanks for maintaining this produce. Besides, the download exe is only less

The download is bad. Try a different mirror.

It should be quite a few MB's in size.

Hi the support team of pidgin,

Thanks for your effort in making it open source. Just a bug that the download

Assuming you're downloading the Windows version, the main link from 
www.pidgin.im which redirects you to a sourcefourge.net page. Are you 
maybe trying a wget or some such on the link from the main page? 
(Which will open essentially download a small file of HTML).

Pidgin 2.5.4 Download

I've tried both from the main page and the alternative suggestion.  The 
error message says:


Installer integrity check has failed.  Common causes include
   incomplete download and damaged media.  Contact the installers
   author to obtain a new copy.  More information at

Any suggestions, apart from the ones at that NSIS site?

trojan in Pidgin download

Hi all,

Just letting you know that I tried to upgrade from Gaim to Pidgin recently and 
the Windows distro that I downloaded from the Amsterdam mirror contained a copy 
of the Zlob trojan (Zlob.Porn.Mag.Pass to be exact). I guess I'll postpone the 
upgrade for a bit :)

Thanks,
