To whom It may concern, I have been using Pidgin now for well over 3 years and have had very little problems until three days ago, but now I have a issue with the XMPP Connection to my Gmail account, (Unable to find alternative XMPP connection methods after failing to connect directly). I am running your latest version of Pidgin 2.6.4 with a XP professional operating system. Virus protection by Vipre.
The only thing I have change in the last 3 days is my wireless router but things don't make sense as my Hotmail and yahoo accounts still operate without any issues.
