Pidgin, available from http://www.pidgin.im/, is a multi-protocol instant messaging (IM) client that allows you to use all of your IM accounts at once.
Pidgin can work with these protocols: AIM, Bonjour, Gadu-Gadu, Google Talk, Groupwise, ICQ, IRC, MSN, MySpaceIM, QQ, SILC, SIMPLE, Sametime, XMPP, Yahoo! and Zephyr.
2.10.x
Use the offline installer, as it includes GTK+, available from http://pidgin.im/download/windows/
The options /DS and /SMS can be used to enable or disable the Desktop and Start Menu shortcuts.

2.7.0
This is a major reworking of the unattended installation method. They no longer supply 'no-gtk' versions and have included their own version of GTK in the installer. This makes things a lot simpler. I have also updated the 'Bonjour Print Services for Windows' package to replace the previous 'Bonjour for Windows' package that Pidgin depends on.

2.3.1
I download the client and GTK separately, install GTK first, then Bonjour and finally the client.

<depends package-id="gtk"/>
<check type="file" condition="versionequalto" path="%programfiles%\pidgin\pidgin.exe" value="2.3.1.0" />

<exit code="11728" />
</install>
<install cmd='cmd /C taskkill /F /IM pidgin.exe' >
<exit code='1' />
<exit code='128' />
</install>
<install cmd='"%SOFTWARE%\pidgin\pidgin-2.3.1-no-gtk.exe" /L=1033 /S' />
<remove cmd='"%ProgramFiles%\pidgin\pidgin-uninst.exe"/L=1033 /S' />
</package>
If you want to set pidgins' language other than english, "/L=" to your countrys' LCID.
