Skype has it's own VoIP protocol. and it does not use any common protocol such as SIP, H232 etc... The Skype codec is high-availability codec, that is, it attempt to compress the audio (and video) and giving your CPU to work a lot more, while trying to keep law bandwidth.
That's of corse on theory only, and might changed on any giving point with Skype.
