I did try two different versions of Gufw prior, (0.20.7-0ubuntu2 [universe] & 0.20.7 [tuxfamily]), but no noticeable changes related to the issue above.  If there are any other specs, logs or other info you'd like to know, don't hesitate to ask.

Pidgin can't login without gui-ufw running

Status in “gui-ufw” source package in Ubuntu: Incomplete

Bug description:
Running Ubuntu 8.04 64-bit on an Intel Core 2 Duo Processor.

I cannot log in to AIM or Yahoo! messanger using Pidgin if gui-ufw isn't open.

Please note, I have no rules set in my firewall for any of these.  Gui-ufw is simply an interface and opening it should not effect the operation of the firewall.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Install Pidgin
2. Install GUFW
3. Use Pidgin to log into AIM or Yahoo! messanger (connection will not be made)
4. Open GUFW
5. Use Pidgin to log into AIM or Yahoo! messanger (connection will be made)
