Administrator Matt Posted July 28, 2014 Administrator Share Posted July 28, 2014 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 sternog for the update.Download Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jvidal Posted July 29, 2014 Share Posted July 29, 2014 (edited) It took me several tries till I got the right file.The weird thing is that the file NAMED SkypeSetup_6.18.0.106.msi installed build 105. There was something really screwed up in the server.Now I got the correct installer.thx!PD: BTW, I don't like the exe installer, as it will install additional crap. Stay away from it.

SPECTRUM Posted July 29, 2014 Share Posted July 29, 2014 PD: BTW, I don't like the exe installer, as it will install additional crap. Stay away from it. no, the exe does not install anything extra without your consent, it will ask to you during the installation for extra things and you can disable all of them if you want.

jvidal Posted July 29, 2014 Share Posted July 29, 2014 yeah, but it's easier to just skip all the crap by using the msi installer. just double click it and you're done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rseiler Posted July 30, 2014 Share Posted July 30, 2014 yeah, but it's easier to just skip all the crap by using the msi installer. just double click it and you're done.Except if you ever want to upgrade Skype again, when you'll find that an MSI-installed version of Skype needs to be uninstalled first....
