In your VPN connection properties, go to the "Networking" tab and bring up the Properties for the "Internet Protocol (TCP/IP)" item, in the "Advanced" section there is a checkbox for "Use default gateway on remote network" - uncheck it. As noted in the FAQ and pointed out by Phil, Pidgin simply doesn't support using a pac proxy, patches to implement support are welcome. -D _______________________________________________ Support mailing list Support@pidgin.im http://pidgin.im/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/support
