I just check the profile via "View Profile" in the contact's Context
menu, but I'm not on Facebook or Messenger, so I don't know if that
helps you there.

For  those  of us who have updated to this version  of  skype you should be
aware of the following problem.  Skype no longer reports the id of the user
in the contact list.    This is not a problem with jaws or any other screen
reader.  Skype is not sending this information to msaa.   

This information is very useful when you're trying to attempt to figure out
if the user is on Facebook Skype or messenger.  Fortunately Skype reports
whether or not it is a  messenger contact.  However, it does not report
whether or not it is a Facebook contact the workaround for now is simply
this highlight the contact with the up or down arrow keys while in the
contact list.  to find out if the user is on Facebook or Skype route  your
jaws cursor to your PC cursor   and then press the down arrow key to move
down one line.  if it is a Facebook contact you will  hear Facebook if you
heare anything  else then it is not a face   book contact.   

we can get the information from the invizable cursur and report if the line
has this content.  I don't see why not.  What you think doug.  Maybe you
have a better work around or idea on how to provide this information.  This
is a major problem for me do to the fact I have a number of contacts that
use the same name on skype and facebook.  The work around I described above
works but it is time consuming   to say the least.
