    Are there any special characters in either address (like . or -?). Is it saying that you can't or that you've already got an account?

    If you go to the website (http://www.skype.com/intl/en/home) can you create an account that way?

    Strange, it is letting me set up a new account with my gmail. Is it the auto type that comes up and you are selecting it? Have you tried typing it in making sure you are not leaving spaces?
