We have several people using Skype, and have really had no issues, other than a dropped call here and there and some bad video once in a while. In fact, we are teaching a class over it to 5 kids somewhere on the east side of the state. No real big problems. Definitely a program that we could use more of!!! We are using Lightspeed for content filtering. Have a great, beautiful weekend!!! Jeremy

Our content filter stops it as P2P traffic (which it really is...). I could get past that if I could use a specific port, but Skype is all over the place on ports, and you can only set a static inbound port, not outbound. I am working with the vendor (Deep Nines), but I am curious what others are doing. Google Talk anyone? Jim Kerns Spencer Community Schools 23 East 7th St P.O.
