hello! skype has not a connection problem.
if you want to make sure, you can check the heartbeat daily blog to read about connection problems and on or off issues. you may be having a local internet connection problem, firewall controller problem or instant connection unaccessible problem. for testing this, 1: restart your connection if you're using cable/dsl. (before doing this, shut down your computer complatelly.) 2: open your computer and try to access the your internet homepage 3: check the status bar, may be you can see the some of the components couldn't access correctly. 4: if you're using internet explorer 8.0 or firefox 3.5, click to refresh in new window. and check the status bar again. 5: if the components could access correctly, skip next step that i will provide. 6: open your firewall settings and check if skype or skype pm got a block 7: if it is, remove the block. 8: open your user folder and find the skype documents folder. in windows xp: c / documents & settings/user ?d/application data/skype not: the symbol is back slash, but the system can't show it. 9: find the shared.lck file. 10: click right and click properties 11: make sure the reed only button is not checked. 12: if it's already not checked, find the invisible check box and before, made it checked, and later redo it to not checked. save changes and close the folder. note: while doing these steps, skype must be closed from system try. 13: try to access the another im service if you are using. i will tell about wlm if the connection couldn't provided, click repair. possibly it will be solved succesfully. if not, feel free to contact.
