Thanks, Flor. Someone else said that 5.0 worked well, but that 5.1 to 5.3 worked less well. All I could find on the Skype site though was 5.3. I was hoping to hear more info and opinions before installing anything, so thanks much for your feedback.

[To bring this into accord with list rules I have introduced a subject line for this reply and thread.] After Skype 3.8, Skype underwent significant changes in its architecture such that, for a long time, versions of Skype didn't work as well as 3.8 did with JAWS. Now, however, Skype version 5.xx works excellently with practically all usable JAWS versions. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Don & Cher Bosch" <oneagleswin...@bellsouth.net> To: <jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com> Sent: Sunday, May 08, 2011 4:19 PM Subject: [JAWS-Users] (no subject) >> Dear List- > > After installing IE8 , I got a warning from the IE8 program that it > might > crash if I did not update my old reliable Skype 3.8.
