As the saga continues, this may be the ultimate solution why windows pc's
happen to have constant skype crashes for those who currently have skype
issues similar to mine, I thought you'd enjoy this info this skype
representative sent me regarding this problem about my skype crashing when
I try again to confirm a contact request. Also is below the previous
thread regarding this contact between me and skype support.

Hello Chela,
Thank you for your reply.
We understand that Skype crashes when you receive a contact request and
you receive an "unterminated tag" error message. We would be happy to
assist you with this.
Can you try to completely remove Skype from your computer again, even on
your computer's registry, by following the steps the previous
representative has given and then try to download and install Skype as
follows:
First try to clear the browser cache. Choose the correct set of
instructions depending on the browser you use:
Internet Explorer: Tools > Delete Browsing History > Tick the option
Temporary Internet Files, then click Delete
Mozilla Firefox: Tools > Clear Private Data > Tick option Cache > Clear
Private Data Now
Now download Skype from:
http://www.skype.com/go/getskype-full
When the pop-up window is displayed please choose Save and wait until the
file finishes downloading. Now you can start the installation file, which
should be named SkypeSetupFull.exe. Windows should send you a prompt to
start the installation automatically. If you do not receive the prompt
then you can start the installation manually using the SkypeSetupFull.exe
executable file, which you should find saved onto your Desktop.
Should you need more assistance, feel free to contact us again.
Best regards,
James L.

Hello Chela,
Thank you for your reply.
We understand that you are having usability issues with Skype.
To fix this problem, please try doing the following steps:
1.. Update Windows with the latest service packs and updates.
http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com
Be sure to include "optional updates" for new hardware updates.
2.. Reinstall Skype*
3.. Make sure you have the latest version of DirectX for your version
of Windows.
For Windows XP, you can download it here:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/en/details.aspx?FamilyID=2da43d38-db71-4c1b-bc6a-9b6652cd92a3
4.. Ensure you have the latest device drivers for your sound and video
hardware. These are available on the device manufacturer's website.
5.. Ensure your firewall settings are correctly configured for use with
Skype. For more information:
http://www.skype.com/help/guides/firewalls
* Please follow the steps below for the proper reinstallation of Skype:
Close Skype completely.
To do this, right-click the Skype icon in the system tray at the bottom
of the screen. Select Quit.
Note about your Contact List
There is no need to backup your Contact List. They are stored centrally
on Skype's server. You can access them from anywhere, providing you sign
in to Skype with the same Skype Name and password. You can see a detailed
list of your calls and SMS messages at:
https://secure.skype.com/store/myaccount/history.html
Save your chat history, if you want to.
1.. Click Start and run..
2.. Type %appdata%\skype and click OK. Your account folder appears in a
new window.
3.. Copy the account folder with your Skype Name to another safe place.
For example, copy it to your Desktop, burn it to a CD, or save it on a USB
memory stick or card.
Uninstall Skype.
1.. Click Start and run...
2.. Type appwiz.cpl and click OK. A function called Add or Remove
Programs appears - it is part of your Control Panel.
3.. Scroll down and select Skype. Click Remove.
Delete the Skype application folder.
1.. Click Start and Run..
2.. Type %appdata% and click OK. A new window appears showing the Skype
folder.
3.. Delete the whole Skype folder.
Delete entries from the Registry Editor.
1.. Click Start and run...
2.. Type regedit and click OK. The Registry Editor window appears.
3.. Select Edit from the top menu and click Find. Type Skype into the
Find what field.
4.. Right-click on the Skype entry that appears in the search results
and click Delete.
5.. Repeat steps 3 and 4 until there are no entries found.
Install the latest version of Skype.
You can download the full installer from:
http://www.skype.com/go/getskype-full.
Restore your chat history, if you want to.
1.. Quit Skype. To do this, right-click the Skype icon in the system
tray at the bottom of the screen. Select Quit.
2.. Click Start and run..
3.. Type %appdata%\skype and click OK.
4.. Replace the folder showing your Skype Name with the folder that you
saved to safe place.
If the above steps will not work, please try performing the
reinstallation process again but this time, try installing an earlier
version of Skype. You can download the installer from sites such as:
http://www.oldapps.com/skype.php. We recommend downloading and installing
version 4.2.0.169.
Tip: If you wish to update to the latest version again, you can do this
through your Skype application by going to Help > Check for Updates.
We hope that you found this answer helpful. Should you need any further
assistance or have additional questions, please do not hesitate to contact
us again.
Best regards,
Leopoldo B.

Subject: I found a Bug In Skype That Needs Fixing
Hello to whom it may concern,
My name is Chela Robles with the skype name jazzytrumpet and I recently
found a bug to report to you guys in Skype Version 5.1.0.104 whenever
someone contacts my request on skype and I confirm by pressing add to
contacts, I get
Skype
Unterminated entity.
OK
Is there a way to fix this? I use JAWS 10 with the latest JAWS scripts,
on a Windows32-bit XP machine. I'm a totally blind customer of yours and
do hope you can correct this error.
Thank you for taking this into consideration.
Sincerely,
Chela Robles
