I tried to open Pidgin Portable just now (it's the latest one). I get as far as entering my MSN details, after I click on OK, it brings up the Pidgin Portable windows, but with nothing in them. It freezes instantly and then comes up with the following error message:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
