Honestly, I agree with you. I have Skype 3.8 on my old laptop that has raywonder1 on it, but that's because I didn't upgrade the skype version on muztech, which your making me want to do that now. I'm going to stop supporting it as of tonight. I need to write some html to keep me ok anyways. Same for me, if I'm in trouble for saying this, then Sarah if you must, delete me from your list, but I don't care whether you do or not. Your really cool people, so I shouldn't have that problem. Once again, as of tonight, Skype 3.8 will not be on Muztech at all. If you need to download it you best to get on downloading it now, because pretty soon, it will be down.

Not updating your skype is asking for trouble. First the new version of skype has fixed a number of stability issues that means skype will not be crashing on you regularly. Whole that leave your system open to attack are closed so this means using the new version is safer. The new version includes a new audio codec witch offers improved audio quality. It also uses less bandwidth. So what your choice to not upgrade is doing to the rest of us is when you with your old version of skype call us we have to use the old codec and we use more bandwidth. Thus you decrease our audio quality and put more of a load on our bandwidth and our computers. Also no improvements is being made to skype 3.x so if you find a problem it is not going to get fixed. Skype 3.x will not work reliably on windows 7 32 and not at all on 64. So if you ever plan on upgrading your operating system your going to have to go to a lator version of skype. Sorry people are not going to like me for saying this but what skype needs to do at this point is not allow anything under skype 4.01 to connect to the skype network. I mean my god this guy the other day called me using skype 1.4 and the compatability issues we had interfaceing the two were interesting to say the least. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Hamid Aitouznag Sent: Saturday, June 26, 2010 3:53 AM To: screen access software with skype Subject: Re: [Skypeenglish] Unwanted skype update Hi Steve, First of all, go to your skype options, under advanced settings and tab untill you hear something related to updates and alerts... There are four checkBoxes that you have to check in order to prevent skype updates. However, even you do that, you might get skype trying to force the new update on you whenever you sign in to skype or you start your computer, be careful. I suggest that you start pressing alt+f4 whenever you sign into skype quickly for about thirty seconds, if there is an update running, you'll get a message asking you if you really want to cancel the update, tab to ok and hit enter. That way, you are safe at least until you sign again to your skype account.
