Internet Apps Support

I'm trying to use FileZilla to FTP to/from my workplace. It requires connection via SFTP using SSH2. Contact is completed easily using PuTTY and WinSCP. But I get a "Unable to Connect" error message with FileZilla. (Yes, I have set SSH2 in Server type.)
Host, user, password, port are all set identically.
Any ideas?

I load pidgin in High resolution monitor and set position of IM window but when i load Pidgin in low resolution it will out of window, I think it was load position relatives.

I was wondering if anyone has found an XFire plugin for Pidgin Portable that works.

I've already visited this site: http://www.fryx.ch/xfire/ and tried to install that one for Gaim, but didn't have any luck. Anyone got any tips or links that could help me out?

Thanks a lot.

I have a problem with pidgin whereby it won't start via the portable apps menu:

Throws : error loading pidgin.dll error (1114) a dynamic link library (DLL) initialization routine failed

So I go into the apps directory and start it manually and it runs happily.

When I resume the computer from sleep, it always crashes.

Running (unfortunately for me) Vista Home Preumium (it's totally rubbish!) 32bit
on
Acer Aspire 9300 laptop with 2gb ram

In the actual application, and the unofficial versions before this one was released, I was able to hit the X in the top right corner, and the app would reduce down to the notification area, much in the same way that the genuine MSN does.

Now when I hit X in the corner, it closes the App. It's so annoying, is there anything you or I can do to make it reduce to the notification area.

TIA

This morning I updated from the preview version (which was in turn updated from GAIM) to the newly released Pidgin. I also added the encryption plugins.

Everything worked ok for about an hour, then pidgin unexpectedly froze. I terminated it and then restarted it, and 5 seconds after the chat dialog boxes returned (I have it configured for 3 IRC channels in tabs via SSL) it froze again.

Further investigation has determined that as soon as I start pidgin it starts grabbing memory and pegging 1 core of my cpu until it grabs approximately 1200MB at which time windows kills the process.

Dear all,

When I launch Portable Pidgin I got the following error :

Error loading pidgin.dll
Error: (1114) A dynamic link library (DLL) initialization routine failed.

GTK in directory \CommonsFiles but same problem when GTK in \PidginPortable\App\GTK.

Hereby you will find my conputer information:

Operating System : Windows XP Professional (5.01.2600 Service Pack 2)
CPU : 3000 MHz
Bus Speed : 800 MHz
Motherboard : Dell 0FJ030
System : Dell Dell DXP051

I start my own build of pidgin with a batch file.
set PIDGIN_MULTI_INST=2
start ./Pidgin/pidgin.exe -c Data /nosplash /minimized

Frist feature is to write PIDGIN_MULTI_INST to windows variables. This could be done to start the launcher with an option -PIDGIN_MULTI_INST=2.

Second feature to be able to add /nosplash and /minimized to the launcher so no splash screen will pop up and pidgin will be started into tray and not fullscreen.

Hello,

I am trying to connect Miranda through a company proxy. It allows me to surf through the internet but it seams not to allow me to connect to MSN.
I changed the settings to the HTTP proxy.
I changed the MSN settings to the HTTP gateway mode but it doesn't work.

Does anybody know if it is possible to connect through the HTTP protocol like a browser?

Thanks
Wickiman

Im am IT support person and we noticed that since a lot of people have been using Portable GAIM / PIDGIN to access IM which is not allowed in the office. Is there any way i can restrict its usage?

Thanks, BusinessGeeks
