I downloaded Skype with my Firefox - of which I have the latest version. I also downloaded Skype plug-in.

When I start Skype from the desktop shortcut icon, I wont let me put my password into their (skype) signIn box.

Anybody else having same problem ? Any advice appreciated thanks guys....

No longer need assistance thanks folks

I solved the problem.

The settings in my skype had 'permissions for administrator only' -

Don't know how that changed but I have taken the permission restrictions off the profile and all is good

Cheers J
