Skype support on reX viewer is basically thin wrapper over Skype4com. You can make Skype call from viewer by right-clicking an avatar which have a skype address set. For actual calls the Skype application is used.
For setting your skype address please see more from <viewer-location>/app_settings/skype.ini.

I was trying to avoid my earlier mistake with the Flash Player and the browser. It may be another case of user error on my part though. Just wanted to check if anyone had the functionality working currently. Ugh, I guess I'll have to download VisualStudio and use subversion to access the source to see how the integration works. I did read that there was a Skype integration with OpenSim a while back. I'm guessing this may be part of that. I think it would be interesting to see what other kinds of collaborative tools could be integrated in with virtual worlds. Especially since some have APIs to their services like Skype and others are FOSS like openmeetings.
