[solved]Pidigin won't connect...

[Clad in Sky]

... due to either "invalid screen name" or "incorrect password"

Since the support site of pidgin.im is not worth the paper it's not printed on, I thought I'd ask here.
I have an account in ICQ that I can log in to when I'm on ICQ.com.
Using pidgin I cannot use that account. I always get one of the errors above.

So - how is my screen name, when the name of my account is Xpistian? When I type (in pidgin's account manager) in Xpistian@icq.com I get "incorrect password" which is odd since it works for logging in to icq.com to view my profile etc.
When I just type in Xpistian I'll get "invalid screen name"
Any ideas?
And yes, I'm using 2.4.3, so that shouldn't be the problem

Thanks
Christian

don't you need to use your UIN to connect to icq?

cheers
