Bob would immediately be presented with a window labeled “Say Hello…”, which

includes a blank text-input box to give Bob an opportunity to Alice who he is and why he

is wants to share contact details. This introduction text is particularly helpful if Alice was

not expecting Bob’s request.

When Bob completes the message text and clicks OK, the request will be sent from Bob

directly to Alice.

Because Alice has not yet shared her contact details with Bob, Bob cannot see Alice’s on-

line status. In addition, if Alice is not logged in to Skype when Bob sends the initial

request, the request will actually be sent the next time both Bob and Alice are logged on at

the same time.

Eventually, Alice will receive Bob’s request message in a special window that is clearly

labeled as an incoming request for her to share her contact details. Alice gets to choose

how she wants to handle the request. She can accept Bobs request. Or she can reject it.

If Alice decides to accept Bob’s request, then she would choose to “allow this user to see

when I’m online” and click OK. If, on the other hand, she rejects Bob’s request, she would

select the “do not allow this user to see when I’m online”.

In either case, once Alice makes her decision, her answer is returned to Bob’s Skype client.

And, if she approved the request, then the message that is sent to Bob’s Skype client would

immediately begin to display Alice’s on-line status.

Here we show an unwanted request sent by Skype user Charlie to user Alice. As usual,

Charlie created the request by adding Alice to his contact list. But, in this case, Alice

decided not to share her contact details and disclose her on-line status to Charlie.

In effect, Alice rejected Charlie’s request. Although a denial message is returned to

Charlie’s Skype client to close out the request, Charlie will not be informed of the

“rejection”. In other words, from Charlie’s perspective, Alice’s on-line status simply

remains a question mark.

Blocking Other Skype Users

To give Skype users control over who contacts them, Skype supports the ability to block

another Skype user, even if contact details have already been shared.

Blocking a Skype user does two things: it stops the Skype user who has been blocked from

communicating with the user who has performed the blocking, and from seeing his or her

on-line status.

If a user unblocks a Skype user, do the users need to share contact details again? No, for all

intents and purposes, sharing contact details is permanent. Once a request is sent to another

user, there is no way to take it back. However, blocking can be used effectively to nullify a

request to share contact details.

The Skype client allows users to create and manage a list of blocked users through the

privacy preferences, as well as by selecting Tools ->Manage Blocked Users. Once a Skype

name is added to this list (and until it is removed) a Skype user who is blocked will be

unable to see the on-line status and cannot initiate contact via Skype.

Users who have been blocked may be unblocked at any time by the user who put the block

in place, simply by removing the blocked user’s name from the blocking list.
