Skype Troubles
Has anyone else been struck by the "Easybits Go" download from skype? I have uninstalled it using the add/remove programs function AND uninstalled skype and the program remains. I have also deleted what registries relating to EasyBits Go i could find. Yet the program remains. Apparently it IS MalWare. Does anyone else have this problem or any idea how to get rid of it?

Re: Skype Troubles
I Hensley stopped using after MS acquired it. Simply because I don't use windows and MS have a habit of endiing support for any non-windows platform (as well as anything non current in windows such office ending support for XP and Vista)....
I'd probably recommend Google chat/voice (with voice you can call any phone in the us for free as well)

Re: Skype Troubles
On the mac, yes. I've just given up even touching it now since everything failed to work, except for MS office for mac (ironically).
