An update from Villu on the login issue
By
Peter on August 17, 2007 in Skype announcements.
Hello all,
As Europe has woken up to a new day and Asia is entering the evening hours, here’s the latest on the sign-on problem.
We’re on the road to recovery. Skype is stabilizing, but this process may continue throughout the day.
An encouraging number of users can now use Skype once again. We know we’re not out of the woods yet, but we are in better shape now than we were yesterday.
Finally, we’d like to dispel a couple of theories that we are still hearing. Neither Wednesday’s planned maintenance of our web-based payment services nor any form of attack was related to the current sign-on issues in any way.
We’ll update you again as soon as we can. Thanks for hanging tight.
As always, you can find the latest information on the Heartbeat pages.

The world has stopped.
A deficiency in an algorithm? You're not telling us a little creepy crawly has gotten in, are you?
Good luck fixing this thing guys!
Anyway, the world hasn't really stopped, I was just kidding
