I didn't think Nessus detected Skype via port scans? I thought it was
via just stating if it was installed or not? ie all you need is Remote
Registry access to do the check (works for us)

As Skype is a fully encrypted product, I wouldn't think there was a
"standard" packet sequence you could send to detect Skype via port scan.
