    friend just told me to use it
    from what i gather the advantages are
    it requires no email
    files are encrypted?
    no ads
    resources ok
    ?

    (googletalk has no file exchange yet is simple)
    (msn is well...... msn)

    Skype is great, I've not been using it for that long, around 10 weeks,
    but after using Yahoo which sucks big time now uninstalled.
    Calls are very cheap as well.
    Test it on a few free call numbers, you'll see what i mean.
    it's so easy to use and set-up, the quality is superb.
    you can now get the handsets "VOIP" for £20

    my mate said something to me about this the other day. is this program free?

    what exactly does it do?
    Those who dont learn from the past are doomed to repeat It.
