Skype - Create An Account

I am using Windows XP SP3 with all the Updates. When I try to create a Skype account, the "Repeat email" field isn't working, cannot enter anything. Have tried Opera, Firefox and IE8.

I was going to ask if anyone knows what's wrong on the Skype Forum, but first I would have to create a Skype account lol.

Any ideas?

TIA

@1867,
It says you can also connect with a Facebook account. If you have one, try that.

I tried completing the fields on the Skype form and, without completing the process, it accepted the typing.

Is there an error message that is being presented when you finish the form and process?

Perhaps it is telling you the email address is already in use by someone else?

@Butrflynet,
Ah, I bet it is telling you that you already have an account using that name and or email combination.

It just told me that.

I am paranoid bro, so don't want any sort of link between Facebook and Skype lol.
No error message. Just created a hotmail account specially for Skype.

@1867,
If you're paranoid, you better not get on Skype!

@1867,
So create a similarly fake account for Facebook and use that to login to Skype.

@1867,
