--- Comment #17 from Artem S. Tashkinov <t.artem at mailcity.com> ---
I wonder if one should file a new bug report because recent Skype releases
simply say:



Sorry, we couldn't connect to Skype.
Please check your Internet connection and try again.

Retry.


At the same time a browser window gets open with this URL:

https://apps.skypeassets.com/static/skype.client.login/trunk/latest/release/login.html?client_id=439400&uiversion=7.18.66.112&language=en

Even with IE8 installed Skype does _not_ allow to enter your credentials.
Simply put Skype is unusable under Wine unless you pass a username and a
password via command line arguments (which is quite insecure).
