Yeah
Yeah, I saw that one being posted in the ticket and IRC a lot. My @live account is fine, however.
why does this NOT install in Windows XP?
I have tried several times to install this file: Pidgin_Portable_2.5.0.paf.exe .
Each time it fails and I receive a message saying this is not a valid Win32 application. Can anyone offer some non-complicated guidance here?

As always, all support questions belong in the support forums. Most likely, you are right-clicking the file to save it which doesn't work. For more assistance, visit the forums.
Sometimes, the impossible can become possible, if you're awesome!

May the road rise up to meet you. May the wind always be at your back. May the sun shine warm upon your face, and rains fall soft upon your fields. And until we meet again, May God hold you in the palm of His hand.
