An acquaintance of mine in Argentina recently migrated to Skype, and
shortly thereafter could no longer log into his Microsoft Live account.
When he tries to log in, all he gets is a blank box.
I'm in Canada and I was more or less forced to make the switch. Fortunately
I had been using Skype for a while and so had no difficulty importing my
contacts.
