    I used to have that problem with Skype a lot.

    Now I've got a different problem where people can't see my replies from MSN at work.

    *sigh*

    Skype is just plain un-reliable crap, its P2P method has many flaws also the way it relies on people who are not behind any NAT to become public nodes is also not nice. I hate skype.

    MSN however last time i checked used a centralised server, so in theory you shouldn't have a problem like that enless one is going on at Live Central. Try txt'ing one of the 'offline whos online' people asking them to relog.

    MSN at work, bet you its the poxy, many have specail logging software for msn/icq etc.

    Same here but that's probably because MSN thinks that I'm not at my computer for 120 + hours at one time!
    Woohoo now Assistant Manager!
