Back in Windows today (to try out Joost thanks to an invite from Lucas Bigeardel, component lead for EMF Search) so I thought I'd blog a few tips for my continuing survival here.
Out of the box, Pidgin 2.0 uses ESC as the 'close tab' key, which is a pain when you're used to Gaim 1.5's CTRL-W binding. So, to fix that discrepancy, shut down Pidgin, edit the file C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Application Data\.purple\accels and change this line:
(gtk_accel_path "<main>/Conversation/Close" "<Control>w")
For more on Pidgin keybindings, see the wiki.
Still have no perfect solution for the absence of Konqueror, but I found two alternatives worth mentioning:
| 1. Explorer XP: Tabbed file manager; session memory (reload previous tabs on startup), keybindings for all menu items |
 |
| 2. FileAnt: Left-right paned file manager w/ tabs; runs in task tray; session memory; reports disk/memory usage & folder sizes |  |

I did not actually try it, but LifeHacker had a download for the tabbing support.
