1157659 2010-11-30 22:52:00 When making calls the call connects and then immediately fails. At the other end the call rings but when answered immediately drops. Same thing happens with incoming calls. Thought it might be firewall or somesuch but (to me) the settings all seem OK. Any ideas where to look would be appreciated.
Running Vista, AVG and Windows Security Centre. (turned off the WSC firewall; no change.)

1157662 2010-11-30 23:52:00 Is it the latest version of skype (5.0.0.152)? Speedy Gonzales (78)
1157663 2010-12-01 01:23:00 That looks like that was the problem. Now upgraded to 5.something and made 'partially' successful call.

Thanks

Why is it that when you visit friends and Rellies they always say: got a minute ? can you have a look at my computer it's not doing....
