Skype telephone nos keep appearing again
I had this a while back but they have come back
I keep getting the "last post" date being converted to a sype telephone number ie +444200911 being 4th jan 2009 11:nn
It doenst do it for all posts nor is it consistent with the last post user.id. Ive checked that the "associate" box is unchecked on the options,advanced screen. Ive even closed skype down and it still does it.
its driving me mad
ThanksDuncan

Have you set Skype to auto update whenever a new version is available ?
It may now have a feature to interpret certain text as Skype numbers for easy use ??
Worth checking Skype's preferences or looking to see if it has a control panel that has settings ??
Dunno, worth a look. I have it on my Mac but its always closed as you get spammed all the time regardless of the privacy settings set.

I do have an autoupdate box checked but i also have the "notify me" box checked
perhaps i'll try uninstalling skype and reinstalling. if that fails i'll just hit it with a hammer....
Thanks Duncan

There must be a setting to automatically parse text in a browser or other app into a Skype number. Try using FireFox or Opera etc. Maybe there is a Skype plug in for Internet Exploder ??

There is a skype plug in. I usually justvdisable it. Ithink it's in tools options in your ie window(not skype window) uninstall and reinstall just puts it back in there...Bodsys Brake Bible

I'm a bit slow with these things but decided to install Skype for the first time yesterday........
First thing I noticed was the effect it had on the Disco3 site - just as Dunc has shown.
Decided to simply uninstall Skype instead.
Don't have an iPhone either so I'm sure I'll not miss it in my cave with the rest of my Luddite pals. The older I get, the more I realise that people confuse wrinkles for wisdom

Skype is great JMC. I talk to my brother who lives in Whistler a few times a week and the video and sound is almost perfect Duncan
