Kim Komando announced that SKYPE users MAY have a problem- not sure about the details, but she said they are no longer answering emails...
Hold off on sending them any money until we find out their problem!!!!

It was a hardware thing from what I understood and only short term. They did have a global outage though, and it was kicking people on and off their network for about three days.

All seems to be well now though.

I am a Skype user by the way, feel free to add me to your lists if you want to!

my username on there is the same as it is here...

That was admittedly a bad three days.
I actually had to go the route of the old fashioned morale calls. lame.
