Funny, don't even know why I wasted time with this but here goes... Sent
the message to a coworker of mine who just installed Pidgin and he
received the message just fine. Which (if any) off the record plugins
were used (http://www.cypherpunks.ca/otr/)

What versions of operating systems to and from?

This should probably go in your local.cf so you don't wipe it out
accidentally.

Yes, on my system it turned out sa-update was working just fine, but
some programs were looking at the wrong set of rules so it looked like
sa-update wasn't working.

I have tested this on a Windoze XP SP2 (fully patched). Scanned with
Norton AV Corporate Edition v 10 and ClamAV 0.91.2 and both scans came
back just fine, no hanging.
Upon opening the file, it caused 50% CPU utilization at a constant
rate. That could not be stopped until the computer was reboot.
Simply closing the program wasn't enough to stop the CPU from
stopping...
BTW - I'm running this on a P4 with HT. Not a dual core...
