Skype connection problem

anyone else having trouble connecting to Skype this evening?


Both my wife in UK and me in Geneva cannot get connected to Skype. I don't mean connected to each other, I mean actually connected to Skype itself (the icon stays grey and indicates that it's trying to connect ...... but never does)


Strangely neither of us can connect on MSN Messenger either.

I have a Mac and my MSN hasnt been working for a while so I now use Atrium which seem to be working still...
