Make sure you have all the security settings enabled for your Skype account (not sure what ones they have) and as Celtix said, use a VPN if you want to hide your IP address although you don't really need to.

As they said VPN
I'm pretty sure it was @Kieran; that tweet'd this and i've had a look at it and tempted to get it for (netflix etc), if you still use netflix and stuff where you need to DNS/VPN/Proxy for different countries this could be worthwhile

also, forgot to mention you can get up to 1.5GB of data per month for free (not sure how much you'd use on skype as i've never really paid attention to data usage)
so could start of with free one upgrade if necessary etccccc
with tunnelbear I did their tweet thing 3 times and haven't got ****
no it said that their ultra vigilant tunnelbear team would see that I've tweeted so I trusted them :(
I use Tunnelbear so I can get on Netflix from Germany. I only use the free 1.5GB. It works great for me. Speed doesn't decrease at all. I'll definitely pay when I've used the free 1.5GB.
How long does 1.5GB last on netflix, would assume it'd only be a few movies?
Because you can switch it to american and american has a much larger library.
Atm i'm using unblock-us though which is like £3.20 a month for their DNS.
Erm... Just run Media Hint in FireFox or Chrome and you get the American library...
