Thanks for your comments...

My skype setup had been working fine for over a year. It's only since I
opted for the 1 year unlimited plan (CANADA/US) that this "Blocked"
condition occured. I've been able to view video and audio from the UK and
Japan, with no hitches. The free "skype" connections with friends still
works fine. I want to know "WHAT" is wrong! It may sound paranoid, but
I've even wondered if Bush put me on a "List!" Hopefully, they're just
working out the bugs in their new billing system. In the meantime, it's very
frustrating NOT KNOWING what's going on. I was hoping to find at least one
other person in the same boat as me here.
