That's just it.  I have none of those things to begin with!

Jim,

Windows Live recently changed from having their own messaging service to
using Skype.  This could be happening because you had a Windows Live,
Hotmail, or outlook.com address.  I wonder if there is an option somewhere
that has to be disabled.  If you do have a LIVE.COM, HOTMAIL.COM or
OUTLOOIK.COM email address, you could try using that until you figure this
out.

Best regards,

Steve Jacobson
