If you're reading this topic like I did after seeing the above symptoms, make sure you selected Google Talk and not Jabber. I made the mistake of just selecting Jabber then trying to fix my connection problems, instead of having read those directions first.

If you are following Google's Adium instructions at http://www.google.com/support/talk/bin/ ... swer=24075, they are incomplete. You need to go to the options tab when setting up your account:

-Connect server: talk.google.com
-Check the 'Use TLS encryption' checkbox
