just a me too comment
My system was almost completely unresponsive but I managed to switch to
console and I issued a top command to see tens of pidgin processes using
72% of the system memory (now that everything's fine I see less than 5%
memory usage)
pidgin 2.4.1
2.6.24-18-generic #1 SMP Wed May 28 20:27:26 UTC 2008 i686 GNU/Linux
** Changed in: pidgin (Ubuntu)
Status: New => Confirmed
