Re: Cant connect to skype.

Have you tried to reconfigure F-Secure’s Firewall to enable Skype traffic or even disable it?

Re: Cant connect to skype.

The link you sent wasn't really usefull cause it's for F-Secure 2008 and I'm using F-Secure 2012 the layout is really different, but I looked around on the FSecure 2012 and found the Application control and I allowed Skype to connect to my internett and it worked just wanted to thank you :happy:

You can use any search engine. But Skype relies on IE.

 

Please answer all of the following diagnostic questions in your very next reply:

What is the exact error code / message you received when you are trying to SIGNIN to Skype?

What anti-virus application or security suite is installed?
What anti-spyware applications (other than Defender)?
What third-party firewall (if any)?

Regards,
Tamim
