OK, a bit more research and things are straight. I am running the same version. I installed it as an admin user, but only ran it in my own account. Once I ran it once in the admin account the message indicating that this software was downloaded from the internet went away.
There are also accessable issues with the initial login screen, all fields are accessible via tabs, but the normal VO cursor movements don't work. So: after installing. 1. start the program as an admin user say OK to the question about running an internet downloaded application. 2. accept the user agreement. 3. Login screen appears. Hit tab until you reach the user name combo box and enter your skype login name. 4. Hit tab until you hit the password field and enter your skype password. 5. Hit tab until you find save password and enable the check box. 6. click OK. 7. Accept the request to use the keychain. (Skype uses your system keychain to save the password) 8. Profile window comes up and fill in as you feel appropriate. (VO works great here) 9. Go to contacts menu and make sure you are viewing contact groups (the menu will say hide contact groups if you have it right). 10. Go back into contact menu and find the contact group submenu there is a presets sub-sub-menu where I recommend you click at least "Online contacts" These are checkboxes.
