LeetPirate Posted September 29, 2011 Share Posted September 29, 2011 <img src="http://www.nsanedown.com/images/logos/Skype2.png" class="logo" alt="Skype" title="Skype" />Skype is a little piece of software that lets you make free calls to anyone else on Skype, anywhere in the world. And even though the calls are free, they are really excellent quality. If you and your friends, family or business contacts are using webcams, you can also make free video calls. You can even call landlines and mobile phones at really cheap per minute rates (and there's no setup or subscription fee).Thanks to <span style="color: red;">anuraag</span> for the update.<a href="http://www.nsanedown.com/?request=6058899" target="_blank">Download</a> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Olexijl Posted September 30, 2011 Share Posted September 30, 2011 Officially afaik 5.5.0.119 released. This version (5.6.0.105) i would describe as a tryout release.you can get 5.5.0.119 from www.skype.com/go/getskype-full Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nanana1 Posted October 1, 2011 Share Posted October 1, 2011 Confused with this two version release, so v5.6 is beta release ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rseiler Posted October 1, 2011 Share Posted October 1, 2011 No, 5.6 is not a beta release, though that would have been their normal pattern. Instead, they inexplicably released a 5.5 maintenance release and 5.6 on the next day. This served to instantly orphan the 5.5 release, so I'm not sure why they bothered with it. My only thought is that they expected some Home screen-style pushback against the in-call advertising in 5.6 for non-paying customers and wanted a fixed 5.5 for fallback.

nanana1 Posted October 2, 2011 Share Posted October 2, 2011 Thanks, reseiler, many other sites, eg. FileHippo, etc have listed v5.5.0.119 as Skype's latest release.Which is the latest release, v5.5 or v5.6 ? :s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rseiler Posted October 2, 2011 Share Posted October 2, 2011 Technically the 5.6 of this thread, since it was released some hours later than 5.5.0.119. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nanana1 Posted October 2, 2011 Share Posted October 2, 2011 Technically the 5.6 of this thread, since it was released some hours later than 5.5.0.119.Not so by the reputable FileHippo website which shows v5.5.0.119 as the latest release. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rseiler Posted October 2, 2011 Share Posted October 2, 2011 Not that a 3rd-party site is a higher authority than the vendor's own site(!), but FileHippo probably shows the old version since as of this writing Skype hasn't switched over the main download page to the new version yet. However, it was announced and released last week:http://blogs.skype.com/garage/2011/09/skype_56_for_windows_with_improved_screen_sharing_release_notes.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nanana1 Posted October 3, 2011 Share Posted October 3, 2011 What a mess ! Just realized that Portable Apps has listed v5.5.59.119 as the latest release which is after v5.5.0.119 and before v5.6.0.105. :frusty: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rseiler Posted October 3, 2011 Share Posted October 3, 2011 You can ignore that middle number -- Skype always does that to indicate the installer the product was installed from. They're exactly the same version of Skype, but one installer may come with an optional bundle of, say, Chrome, and the other Google Toolbar, or some other combination (or no bundle at all).
