What is Skype trying to tell me?

skype error message

I think it means, that I am not on Gregory's buddylist. Or that Skype thinks I am not on his buddylist. ;-)

I had my funny moment with Skype with its calling extension in Firefox that tries to interpret numbers as phone numbers on web pages.

Interesting. For my part I can say, that vowe definitely used to be on my Skype contacts list, then I stopped getting his status updates and you was always grayed out. But now, as I gonna check, there is no "Volker Weber" on my contact list anymore. I am very positiv of not having manually deleted anyone from my list.

Actually more than half of my contacts I quite never see online. In one case I know this is because of the user has set himself to be "invisible" - but I doubt that Skype always handle the permissions right.

@Frank: I have disabled this plug in after one day - it is pretty annoying, and I don't go rush to phone every number I came across on any website.
