thanks for the answer, no matter how long it took :-)

the problem is that skype is not a normal sip protocol, is a
propretary protocol and uses ports 80-443 when other ports are closed
but it doesn't have a specific port to open, that would be great!!!!1

I can't believe there's nobody having issue with skype through proxy...

thanks in advance for your help
