Skype crashing
So Windows Live Messenger is about to close it's doors and I can't get it's successor Skype to stop crashing. The Skype messaging box appears with me signed in (I can see my name on it) before it disappears and crashes. Works fine on my desktop (currently disassembled) but not on my laptop. Seems to be to do with my MSN login, which does in fact work as it doesn't have a problem logging me into windows live messenger and logging into the MSN site.
A friend of mine let me test logging into my Skype with his MSN username and password. Bizarrely, Skype doesn't crash when I'm logged into his account, but with mine it crashes. What gives, and how can I fix this? If I can't get it fixed before MSN closes completely, will my contacts still be imported when I do get Skype working? Also, will any other software (AMSN, IM+, etc) work and import my contacts instead of skype after MSN is gone? My version of Skype is the latest, 6.3.60.105.
