I ran into an issue with Pidgin where I started noticing some users weren’t showing up as online for a long period of time. I set it to allow to send to offline contacts, and tried to send to someone I knew was online. It gave me the error:
Unable to send message: In local permit/deny
I fixed this by blocking the user, and then unblocking him. Hope this helps for you as well.

I recently purchased the Kenwood BT838U – I had a JVC recently and the load times on anything besides a standard audio CD were almost unbearable. After reading several other reviews on those units I found that it seems to be a fairly brand wide phenomenon.
I went back to the drawing board, and found the Kenwood BT838U. Here are some of it’s features:
-Built in USB iPod Control
-USB support for FAT32 mass storage devices

I’ve used Microsoft’s System Center Data Protection Manager for about 90 days now as my main production backup service. Here is my quick review of the product.
