This happens on multiple machines, on x86 and ppc.
If I disable the ICQ account it works.

I don't know if mine was the same problem or not. But whenever I wanted to log in to an msn account it would crash. I just removed the account and created it again and now it works fine. Pretty weird though.

That helped. Thanks.
I'll set it to NEEDINFO as I cannot reproduce it anymore.
