Re: Skype 5.9 for Windows hotfix 5.9.0.123

Ms bought Skype coming back in Oct for $12.5 thousand but since then there hasn't been much in the way of new program and elements products that represent a actual collaboration between Skype and Ms products. In a film consultation conducted by Ms at CES 2012, Skype's v. p. of products Bob Osterloh said that collaboration is still in the functions.

Block Ads in Skype

You can block visual ads in Skype by blocking the IP addresses of the related ad servers.

I doubt this will block the crappy new audio ads, but I can't be sure until I run into them.

For US users, Skype currently pulls ads from these servers over port 80.

75.98.29.0/26, adlegend ad servers
65.54.93.0/24, msecn.net ad servers
8.19.18.0/24, dimestore ad servers
4.26.45.0/24, adexpose/scorecardresearch
74.217.34.0/24, adlegend ad servers
74.217.59.0/24, adlegend ad servers
173.194.37.27/32 google ad server
173.194.37.28/32 google ad server

204.9.163.247/32 is the Skype Upgrade Server (block skype updates, not ads)

The Microsoft Block (65.54.93.0/24) provides some legit services over https (port 443).
The ads are all over HTTP, so only block port 80.

I'll try to isolate MS's ad serving IPs in the near future and update the list.


One way to block by IP in windows, is to use IPSec.
It's tougher to learn than blocking by host file, but it can be more effective.

Here's a guide to IP Blocking, using IPSec in WinXP/2003. Vista/7 is similar.
»www.serverintellect.com/support/···kip.aspx

Also: You can't block IPs using a hosts file, just domains.

(subnet notes for newbie networkers:
/24=255.255.255.0
/26=255.255.255.192
/32=255.255.255.255
and/or
65.54.93.0/24 = 65.54.93.0 - 65.54.93.255
75.98.29.0/26 = 75.98.29.0 - 75.98.29.63
173.194.37.27/32 = 173.194.37.27 - 173.194.37.27)

Skype in-call advertising - More Info

In call advertising

In this release we have introduced in-call advertising, which will appear to some of our non-paying customers, during Skype audio calls. Users who have either Skype Credit or any of our subscriptions will not see advertising. Users have the option to hide the ad while on the call by simply clicking on the "Close ad" button.

Users who benefit from ad blocking techniques will also not see advertising.

If time allows, I'll see if I can put together a targeted hosts file updater; for Skype users.
It'd be a double-click-and-it's-installed solution.

Re: Block Ads in Skype

The latest Skype Ad Block / IP list is at the below url.
It'll get updated as new ad servers are discovered.

»dl.dropbox.com/u/71477228/blacklistedads.txt

I use the list in pfSense as an alias. I'd guess it could be used w/ Smoothwall, MonoWall, IPFire, etc.
It should work with IPTables (*nix/BSD) and IPSec (Windows).

The CIDR format can be converted to IP ranges for PeerGuardian / PeerBlock apps.
Drop me a note if you want help figuring that out - or if you want hosts file entries instead.

Notes:
This week, I see Skype connecting to ad servers over HTTP and HTTPS.

To build this list, I wrote a couple of bash shell scripts.
One continually builds a list of MS ad server IPs.
The other compiles a list of MS Web Service (ie Hotmail) IPs, so they don't get blocked by mistake.

As new ad servers show up, they'll get added to the list; linked to at the above url.

Hotfix for multiple Skype clients

quote:
17th July 2012
Hotfix for multiple Skype clients

We are rolling out a hotfix over the next few days for multiple Skype clients to address a couple of known issues.

We recommend downloading the updated versions of Skype once they are available.

The affected Skype clients are:

Skype 5.10 for Windows
Skype 5.8 for Mac
Skype 4.0 for Linux
Skype 1.2 for Windows Phone

The hotfix addresses an issue that occurs only when a user's Skype client crashes during a Skype IM session, which may in some cases result in the last IM entered or sent prior to the crash being delivered to a different IM contact after the Skype client is rebooted or logged in as a new user. Although we cannot determine precisely how many users may have been affected by this error, we believe the number is small given the very specific circumstances under which the error occurs.

During further investigation, we confirmed that not all Skype products were affected by this error as originally reported. We can assure that users of Skype 5.9 for Windows, Skype 2.8 for Android and Skype 4.0 for IOS have not been affected.

In addition, we have fixed File Sending on the desktop versions of Skype where it was not possible to save files for users who have a hard disk drive in FAT32 format.

Skype usage up 50% under Microsoft

quote:

Skype usage up 50% under Microsoft

While the majority of the tech media seem intent this week to report Microsoft's first ever loss since joining the stock market in 1986, there's one particular piece of good news that came from the company's recent quarterly earnings report. Skype's global usage jumped by 50% in the last quarter, equalling to 115 billion minutes worth of calls on the service.

The growth in Skype alone has perhaps been accountable for most of Microsoft's Entertainment and Devices Division's 20% increase in revenue over the last quarter. The news certainly isn't bad for Redmond, who is looking for good news that their purchase of Skype last year was the right decision. As a result, the division's revenue grew by $292 million in the last quarter of April to June.

It's certainly good news for the service, along with the announcement earlier this week that Microsoft intends to fully integrate Skype into its next array of Office 2013 products, set to be released later this year. The 'presense' feature which will be seen primarily in Outlook, allows the user to start a call with either one or many co-workers simultaneously. In other words, Skype looks set to be commonplace in almost every office environement worldwide, if Microsoft has its way.

For a while now, critics have been unsure of which direction Microsoft wanted to take the VOIP service. The news of Skype's growth and integration into other Microsoft products will certainly help to keep the doubters quiet.

Today we have released a new version of Skype for Desktop. Get it now for Windows or Mac.

What's new:

Microsoft and Facebook Account Integration
Sign up and sign-in is easier than ever. You can now sign into Skype using your Microsoft or Facebook account - there's no need to create a new Skype account. This makes it even easier to connect with friends on Skype without having to set up another account.

Skype premium rip off

Skype have treated us very badly. We purchased the Premium service so we could group call from our English School. If one of the group is on an Ipad - the group call didn't work for us even though we were running a PC. They refuse to make a refund even though we requested it within 1 day of ordering. It is a disgrace. Has anyone else had such a problem with Skype customer service?

Skype: We've got good news to share! Skype and Messenger are coming together. Millions of Messenger users will be able to reach their Messenger friends on Skype. By updating to Skype, Messenger users can instant message and video call their Messenger friends.

This effort started with the release of Skype 6.0 for Mac and Windows a few weeks ago, which allows you to sign into Skype using a Microsoft account. Now Messenger users just need to update to the latest version of Skype, sign in using a Microsoft account, and their Messenger contacts will be there.

Anybody notice that Skype Voicemail isn't working?

I've enabled it in my account but it just doesn't come on when people call and I don't pick up.
