Bot Sentry

Bot Sentry is a Pidgin (libpurple) plugin to prevent Instant Message (IM) spam. It allows you to ignore IMs unless the sender is in your Buddy List, the sender is in your Allow List, or the sender correctly answers a question you have predefined.

I desperately need a way to turn OFF the bot sentry for one or more IM services, while leaving it ON for the others. Could you add a way to checkbox which IM services I want it enabled for, so it ONLY does its thing for the ones I NEED it to?

I used universal extractor to take the files out of the archive, then i put them in my plugin dir. the installer has an error msg for me so i had to do it this way. update: another GTK program was running. close any process created with GTK and you can install normally.
