Re: [Skype] Not functioning today
said by jalapeno  :From the announcements on Skype: Problems with Skype login By My status Joosep on August 16, 2007. UPDATED 14:02 GMT: Some of you may be having problems logging in to Skype. Our engineering team has determined that it’s a software issue. We expect this to be resolved within 12 to 24 hours. Meanwhile, you can simply leave your Skype client running and as soon as the issue is resolved, you will be logged in. We apologize for the inconvenience. Additionally, downloads of Skype have been temporarily disabled. We will make downloads available again as quickly as possible. 12-24 Hours... Really.... 30 hours and counting. 
Just after posting this skype came back online. |

Not working here this morning either (7:57am Eastern Time).
This is way too long!
There must be a WHOLE lot of people going nuts right now.
(Both on their end and ours).

Newport, KY | It's been working for me since around 11 or so last night. It doesn't tell you how long you have been on so I don't know that it held up overnight, but I made several calls last night and 2 this morning. It's working. |

| Mine just sat trying to connect when I tried it this morning. (Haven't used it in a while).
I'll give it another shot later (I'm headed out for a while).
Thanks for the heads up.

Uh, yeah. Now that I am at my office no Skype. Itsallgood though. I got my Vonage softphone and my $10 credit at Gizmo. Skype will be back. I get a tremendous amount of value out of the $8.85 a quarter that I give them. |

As of 11:00am Eastern Time, I am not getting any connection. I don't know if anyone else is having this, but my client will try for about 5 minutes or so and then crash. It might be my version, I don't know. |

Mine finally logged in, and then lost the connection about 2 minutes later. (11:34am Eastern).
And for the record, I see there is a new version available, but right now I'm using v3.5.0.202 which has always worked fine in the past, so I doubt it has anything to do with the version number. (For those of you who mentioned it).

I thought since I upgraded the firmware on my router that it was the source of the issue, but I guess not. Does anybody have the same issue as me...I run Win XP Pro ver. 2002 SP2 with Skype 3.0 installed. I go to try and connect and while it's trying to connect it'll crash. I was just wondering. |

Newport, KY | Skype has been on solid for me for 2 hours and counting. I am hesitant to say that they worked it out, but there are currently 4,346,006 people online.
I only know about 40 of them.... |

I just checked and I am logged onto Skype
after being unable to for the last 3 days.
So it looks like it is getting better
