Hello, I have tryed to use a Skype account to connect with java but it hasn't worked. I have tryed with the email adress and the "live:". I have this error:

Cause: While logging in
        Response: 401 Unauthorized
        Begin Message 
{"status":{"code":40120,"text":"Authentication failed. Bad username or password."}}
        End message

But it has worked with my account (created with a username)
So, how can I connect java to my Skype account?

You may find better luck trying out my solution posted here:

Not sure if it will work with a live: username, but worth a try.

The thing with live: usernames is that they are not even working when I try to log on regular Skype :/

I tried to use with my gmail address, live:username, but both cannot login. And now I can only receive this:
java.io.IOException: Error while connecting to Skype: Too many failed authentication attempts with given username or IP. at fr.delthas.skype.WebConnector.generateTokens(WebConnector.java:171) at fr.delthas.skype.WebConnector.start(WebConnector.java:42) at fr.delthas.skype.Skype.connect(Skype.java:121) at fr.delthas.skype.Skype.connect(Skype.java:96) at com.skype.SkypeTest01.testConnect(SkypeTest01.java:13) at com.skype.SkypeTest01.main(SkypeTest01.java:34)

What is the correct username should be used in the program?
