What's New
Version 6.15.60.330:
- Occasionally, some users experienced crashes on launch, and others on quit. Thanks to some valuable assistance from users in the Community Forums, we’ve been able to identify the cause of these crashes. This release contains fixes for both of them.
- Sometimes you don’t want to be notified of every message in a long-lived conversation, and that’s why Skype for Mac has allowed you to set notifications per-conversation for many years. However, recently users on the Forums reported that these settings weren’t sticking. We’re happy to let you know this is no longer the case -- this bug is fixed, and you can again use "Notification Settings…" from the "Conversations" menu to set notification keywords, etc.
- In the release of Skype for Mac version 6.14, we highlighted two known issues: animated emoticons using too much CPU, and some users experiencing crashes when screen sharing on MacBook Pros. In 6.15 we have fixed the animated emoticons issue, and MacBook Pros users should update to Mac OS X 10.9.2 to prevent crashes when screen sharing.

No to all of the above, which is why it continues to get horrible ratings and is one of the worst pieces of junk software written for a Mac...in its current form anyway.

This app might have its issues, but it works fine for video and voice calls between different computers.

The misnomer here is that someone is sitting listening to your calls. That's not true. Computers are monitoring data streams looking for keywords and phrases that imply activity that the NSA would be interested in. So unless your Skype calls generally involve talking about overthrowing the government or other illegal actions, who cares? They aren't interested in what you're talking about.
They are not going to stop doing it. We should all be concerned, but don't let it stop you from living your life. Some people feel that's why they do it, to keep everyone paranoid. I think they just want to prevent another 9/11.

Discouraging naiveness of the developers, panting in panic by years, lost without the compass, both technical (it practical doesn't work!) and for user interface huge issues;a product that becomes worst in amy upgrade after the 2.8.0.866!!!!
And Yahoo Messenger is practically abandoned by the 2003!

I reckon the GUI would've been as crappy as before. MS - if you want details, write me, I can throw lists at you.
