Hi all, just wondering if anyone can help me?
so my Skype although I had turned up auto updates managed to update this morning to the latest version. firstly what a crock of shite, secondly my scripts aren't working what so ever. is there any scripts for this or is there anyway I can configure Skype to be workable or somewhere I can download a couple of versions previous. cheers
Joe

Joe, just google for the scripts and a site should come up with the new scripts and all of the older skype scripts. On my apex, so can't give you the site now, but i'm sure someone else will post here after me.

I think a lot of the info you'll need (especially for turning off time stamps) is in the board topic called "Skype 6.9".

so if you want to use dug's scripts and uninstall freedom's sripts for scripts for jaws15, can you do this ? and if so, how.

You install Doug's on top. No uninstall of Freedom's scripts is necessary since Doug's are placed in your user directory.

I'd remove the Jaws scripts if I wanted to. It is really easy, because they are in your program files.
If running Win 7 or 8 you'll see an uninstaller. If you don't want to look, simply run the new Jaws script installer and it will tell you there is a copy of the scripts, and that you need to uninstall them.
It will remove them from all versions. Stop at that point and don't continue after it is finished.

Looks like Skype will remain. I contacted Microsoft directly, and Skype as we know and love is here to stay.
