I am writing a new app that uses Skype, using the MS .Net starter kit. However, I keep getting the error below.

CODE
System.InvalidOperationException was unhandled

 Message="An error occurred creating the form. See Exception.InnerException for details.  The error is: Communication timeout. This often occurs when Skype is not running, or if Skype is unable to connect to its server."


Any ideas what is causing it? I don't have any problems using Skype; it doesn't time out.

Any help appreciated!

It is very possible you are NOT answering a message from the Skype client, could you use the msgapitest program or skypetracer to see if a message was sent to you which you never responded too?
