Okay, so I was happily using Skype on both Windows and Linux for quite some time, then one day, I think perhaps my mouse clicked something it shouldn't have, and then poof!, all my SkypeOut contacts went missing!. Fortunately, all my normal SKype contacts remained intact, but the Skype Test call contact is not visible either!. I have a feeling I did something stupid and ended up hiding all my SkypeOut and other contacts, if thats the case, then there should be a solution to make them visible again, so my question is do any of you fine people out there know how I would go about doing this?, or are my contacts plain and simply just removed?.

Maybe you changed the group of contacts shown? Which version are you using? Did you check your contact list on Windows?

Yea, the list is now identical on both of my machines, the versions are 1.3.0.53 on Linux and 3.1.0.152 on Windows.
