I have encountered this before:
in most cases, reinstalling skype does the job. if this is not the case, there might be a conflict with a driver skype uses. in most cases this is the network card driver. reinstalling this (preferably with the most recent version) should help... in some rare cases it's the webcam driver that crashes the system.

When i search for someone it says check your internet connection

If you're talking about the little spinning arrow it really isn't it's just a quirk between Skype and the Browser Window.

How do I talk to someone on skype

1. First you must download the skype software and signup for a free account. You can do all of this at http://www.skype.com 2. You must make sure that you have a webcam, either built into your computer or a third party webcam that you bought in order to do video conferencing. If you want to do just voice, you need to make sure you have a mic. USB mics for $10 do a really good job and you can get them from any computer retail shop. 3. Once you sign up and make sure all the equipment is hooked up you need to search/find the person you want to skype with who has hopefully performed the same first 2 steps you have and sent you there username via email or some other method. 4. Once you find them through the skype built in search you should have an option to call that person, click on the icon that looks like a phone. 5. This should ring on the other persons computer and all they have to do is click on the answer button that pops up and you should be talking to each other.
Other than the signup and making sure you have a mic or webcam plugged into the computer all the steps can be done from within the skype software you downloaded above.
Hope this helps you on your way,
Good Luck.

I want to take a picture of someone I am talking to.How ?

On Skype you can not take pictures of different users while you are talking to them. The only way you can take pictures of yourself is if you are setting you picture that will show up on your profile.
