Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better.

I've tried to reproduce your bug but pidgin worked correctly for me.
I logged in here: http://webmessenger.msn.com/ ;
changed my friendly name;
opened pidgin and webmessenger disconnected automatically;
my Friendly Name was up-to-date in pidgin.

I'm using Ubuntu: 8.10 and Pidgin: 1:2.5.2-0ubuntu1

Do you still experience this issue?

Best Regards.
