Actually I like the voice mail system a lot better. Quite frankly I get a voice mail from some one I can see when they left it how many times they called etc. if there are other events from other people they show up in the conversations list I can select them see what they did and so on and so on.

It's different, but it is accessible. one can check voice mails, send files, and do everything else. It's a pain, if you get a lot of voicemails, because one can't just go donw a list, right click on a voice mail and boom, but it's accessible. msn [email protected] skype lord_of_beer last fm http://last.fm/lord_of_beer ----- Original Message ----- From: "Josh" <[email protected]> To: "screen access software with skype" <[email protected]> Sent: Sunday, June 27, 2010 10:36 PM Subject: Re: [Skypeenglish] Unwanted skype update > Well Jim fortunately I am in college and I have internet explorer 8 > running on a Windows XP by choice though I do have another CD with Windows > Vista on it I just choose to use XP.
