I wondered if anyone else is suffering with No Skype! or is it just me? I tried to re install and end up trying to connect!

skype back working again, apparantly it was all down to a computer date error, it was due for total shutdown on 21/12/2012, but shut down on 21/12/2010 by error.

ken,
luckily when skype shuts down on 21/12/2012 we won´t be needing any alternative as we will all be in the same place and won´t need such things to communicate with eachother !

that´s life Ken !!!

still, at least you won´t have to worry about how much of it to spend and how much to save for the future, just divide the total winnings by about 730 and try to spend that much each and everyday..you could start of by buying one of the calendars !!!

We’ve just received $1 compensation credit from Skype, for the ‘down time’.
Not bad considering we didn’t need to make any calls at the time, and in fact we didn’t even know about the problem until reading about it on the forums :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:
