Default Skype problem

I may not be recalling correctly, but it seems earlier versions of
Skype stopped a "non-contact" from inserting themselves onto my
contact list without permission.

Now I'm periodically finding random names in my "contacts" list.

I can't find a setting to prevent this. Am I missing something?

Or is Skype "going-Microsoft" on me :-(

You ain't real bright, boy.

Those are folks requesting to be added. They are not part of your

If you do not invite any of them, they will not be on your list. You
can also block the requests.

You know Skype has been hacked together by Bill Gates??
All software from that source has been made by the highest standards!!
At least I hope it is......

You dont have a choice. I get at least one per week. Normally some Eastern
European asking to be my buddy. As far as I can see, you can do nothing
about it. I have tried setting the various options that only allow people on
my contacts list to contact me, but it does nothing.

If you find a solution, let me know

Solution, use something other than skype or complain to them, and
mention that failure to resolve the clear problem may result in a class
action suit.

MI5 is in the UK, Jim needs to report Skype to the NSA, CIA and FBI.
Probably to the Men in Black too !

Smart guy? 50% chance he does not know what Corbomite is.

The gross solution is to simply turn Skype off. Only open it when you
receive an E-mail from a known respondent requesting a voice session.

You asked this before, but your retarded filter mindset probably had
the responder filtered.

You ain't real bright, boy.

The only "boy" I know of, NymNoNuts, is you. And I mean that in the
good ol' southern sense... you're TRASH, BOY!


I've got nine inches of trash to go up in your wussy boy ass with, BOY!


Go away before someone tows you behind a pickup ;-)



Nice racist remark (don't argue asshole, yes it is, currently), but as
usual, you are 180 degrees off target, and you are not from Texas. The
pussies from AZ that flood CA every year go past you with their door
open. Most are too retarded to drive a big truck or know what things
like ropes and ties are.

I'm a good teacher though. I can any teach any truck driving retard
some of the metallurgical properties of Lead... with a touch of Copper.
Especially particulars as to how they behave when they are traveling at
high velocities.

You must mean that name. Not quite sure how to explain that to the

Smart guy? 50% chance he does not know what Corbomite is.

Dopey democrat retarded twit like you...


Gotta love these delusional wingers! I guess when you base your entire

This is a secret plot of the leftist weenies. Report those names to MI-5
immediately.


MI5 is in the UK, Jim needs to report Skype to the NSA, CIA and FBI.
Probably to the Men in Black too !

Those are folks requesting to be added. They are not part of your

If you do not invite any of them, they will not be on your list. You
can also block the requests.

I use a universal nym filter ;-)

The latest versions of Skype insert "requests" straight into your
contacts list... not that NymNoNuts would know.

So I just go "off-line" until I get an E-mail request from a known
entity.

v4.0 has been a negative improvement to Skype, especially the separate call
progress window which pops up during a call. v3.8 was adequate for most
users. There is a web page where you can still download the older version.
However, be sure to uncheck the box in Options to install new versions or
you'll be back to v4.0 shortly. I had the install new versions turned off
and it still eventually installed 4.0. Skype is a very pushy outfit.
