Asked by John

When I try to launch Pidgin it goes through the process but never launches. I set it up the first time and connected to my msn account, but after the first time it will not launch again.

What happens is that runs minimized and, in turn, does not have an icon for viewing on the panel. Therefore runs but there is no way to see it.
One solution is to uninstall it completely uninstalled their configurations, and then re-install, and without touching anything configuration, try to open it again once closed.
