Disable Pidgin Autostart

[eli_12345]

Hi,
i've installed Pidgin on my system an now each time Ubuntu 9.10 starts up Pidgin gets started. Is there a way to get Pidgin out of the autostart?
I've already tried it via System/Preferences/Startup Applications, but there is no Pidgin-entry there.
The tool 'bum' also shows no Pidgin.
Best,
Eli

Bump

I have the same problem...

take a look in

system - preference - startup aplication

and find if exit an pidgin entry

Thanks for trying, though as the post opener stated: system->preferences->startup applications doesn't have a pidgin entry!

I'm having the same problem... Hopefully there is a solution out there somewhere, or is this maybe a bug?

same problem, no pidgin entry whatsoever!
had to

sudo chmod -x /usr/bin/pidgin

but that's not a fix since when I want to run pidgin I have to

sudo chmod +x /usr/bin/pidgin

in order to make it executable

Isn't there something in Preferences about starting pidgin at startup?
