    I am using Pidgin 2.6.3 (Windows) and the setting I enter for the Auto-Away status will not stay at the value I set.  It stays for a while, but then reverst to "Offline" and logs me out of all my accounts.

    I'm talking about Preferences > Status/Idle > Auto-Away > Change Status To.    I set it to away, but after some random amount of time it resets to "offline" no matter what I do. 

    It does save the config files when I close the prefs window, and if I go right back it is set to my personal setting, but without fail, it will eventually revert back to "Offline" no matter what I do.  I've tried setting it to other values besides "Away", but all end up reverting to "Offline".

    Here's a screenshot of what I'm talking about:

    What is going on and why won't my settings stay as I enter them?  Is there something else that is changing this value I don't know about?

    Please advise.
    Thanks!
