Skype unresponsive after roughly 1min startup

[AMMO]

as the title says my skype is acting up and becoming unresponsive after about 1min of login

i cannot click on anything on skype, including the application itself and it just "dings" and does nothing

i have the latest skype version, i also tried downloading the last version to see if that changed anything

nothing.

anybody have any suggestions? potential fix?
