Question pidgin 2.4.3 not connecting to icq servers.


Hi there.
I have one small question. I have Debian 5.0 Lenny with kernel 2.6.31.3. I have also Pidgin 2.4.3.
The question is:
When I try to register on the server login.icq.com, just as login.messaging.aol.com port 5190 and 443 as a result of getting the same message "Connecting to 597044344(my room) is broken ".
At the same time kopete - also not connected, but connected gnomeicu, with whom I have some inconveniences.
Maybe someone knows how to make pidgin connecting servers?
Sorry for bad English.
Thanks in advance.

There always seem to be issues with Pidgin and ICQ, my only suggestion is to get the latest version - I'm currently connecting ok with 2.5.5

cheers
