I am at my wit's end with Skype and could do with some help.
It has suddenly decided that it does not like my password and has asked me to reset it making sure that it has at least 8 characters and at least one letter and number. Well I have had the same password for years so I set about resetting. It sends me a temporary code and I obey all the instructions but then it says the code is not valid and to apply again. I have several times and now it says I am locked out of the system for security reasons and must wait 24 hours before trying again!
What is the matter with it? and what should I do in 24 hours if I get a repeat?
Many thanks.

check in notepad that what you are typing is what you think you are typing, numlock, capslock off etc.
