This is the Firefox support forum, I'd suggest you contact Skype's support for help

Ok - I'm trying to do that too. Just wondered if anyone had a similar problem.

Skype is saying that java script is blocked by my browser. Is this the case and if so how can I unblock it?

goto your "about:support" in the URL bar and then click 'refresh firefox" on the top right, restart and test.

If you use extensions ("3-bar" menu button or Tools -> Add-ons -> Extensions) that can block (wanted) content (e.g. Adblock Plus, NoScript, Ghostery, uBlock Origin) always make sure such extensions do not block (wanted) content.

  • make sure your extensions and filters are updated to the latest version

Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions ("3-bar" menu button or Tools -> Add-ons -> Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.

  • switch to the DEFAULT theme: "3-bar" menu button or Tools -> Add-ons -> Appearance
  • do NOT click the "Refresh Firefox" button on the Safe Mode start window
