Anyone have a solution for this yet? ( In English? )

I'm using enough fresh version compatible with other OTR implements:

q=
Also it's already supports pidgin html convert :-)

Hallo!

Ich find das echt super, dass sich mal jemand daran setzt, ein neues OTR-Plugin 
zu schreiben, da das Alte kaum Features hat und dieses Einfrieren der GUI beim 
Aufbau einer Session doch echt nervt!
Bin selber Softwareentwickler und weiß, wie viel Arbeit das ist.

Nichstdestotrotz: Wird hier noch gearbeitet, vor allem an diesem Problem?

I've tried 
11.0.0.1 x86  to 11.0.0.1 x86 
11.0.0.1 x64  to 11.0.0.1 x86 
11.0.0.1 x64  to 11.0.0.1 x86

on two fresh installs of miranda on computers in the same room, and always 
nothing but 'Invalid Length', can't get it to communicate at all. plugin seems 
broken, it's not an issue talking to other plugins/other clients.

old OTR plugin from miranda website works fine on that test settup

This happened with pidgin on maemo too (exactly the same error message :)) and 
IIRC it was because of a newer(?) libgcrypt version. I can try it again tonight 
and report back.

I still cannot chat OTR'ed with my friend in Jabber. He has Pidgin. I use the 
beta and its still not fixed. Is this problem fixed in the aplha?

I second yakumo & overture's request. I recently upgraded to Windows 7 x64 and 
I find I can't chat with anyone using OTR with this plugin. Not other miranda 
users for any version of miranda or MirOTR, nor can I chat with pidgin users. I 
get:

[OTR INFO] Error setting up private conversation: Invalid length

Has the x64 version ever worked? Was there ever an x64 version before 11.0.x ?

If libcrypt is the issue, anyone with a working x64 Visual Studio build 
environment wanna build us a copy that works? Pretty please? 

I'm reading http://code.google.com/p/mirotr/source/browse/trunk/building.txt , 
Can I use the free version of Visual Studio to build this? the last time I 
built anything from code was probably linux 0.99 era , but I'm getting 
desperate enough to give it a try... 

Perhaps some of us would be willing to donate a small amount to see this fixed! 

Best,
