Comment 4 for bug 685791

Same thing happens for me from time to time, 10.4LTS, up to date.

Most recently with this url: http://sports.yahoo.com/nhl/news;_ylt=Apj8p9mLo5FDW4c.CRv67Sl7vLYF?slug=ap-gretzkyrookiecard

I've pasted far longer urls without problems, so it makes me think there's something about certain urls that's breaking pidgin, not the length of the string.
