If you discover a problem with a Skype digital signature, it is important that you:

• Do not run any copy of the Skype installer that has failed a verification test.

• Contact the Skype security team via e-mail at security@skype.net and provide specific

details, including information such as where you obtained the Skype installer.

• Download a fresh copy of the Skype installer from the Skype Web site, and verify the

authenticity of the new installer as described in the preceding section.

Skype Client Notifications for New Versions and Updates

Once the Skype application is installed, it periodically checks to see whether an update is

available by default. The Skype client does not update itself. Instead, the Skype client

notifies the user when a more recent copy or critical patch is available. This gives gives the

user the option to upgrade.

Users may chose to disregard these upgrade notices. System- and network administrators

may disable this feature to control software installation policies. See “Enterprise

Installation and Setting Policies” below.

End users can control the Skype automatic update-notification feature by a Skype

application preference (choose Tools > Options > Advanced).

Alternatively, users may manually check to see if the copy of Skype they are running is the

most current version. There are two ways to accomplish this:

• A user may select Help > Check for Updates from the Skype main window. This will

launch the user’s default web browser and display a message indicating whether the

installed version is up to date, or

• Without launching the Skype client, a user may open the Windows Control Panel and

double-click on Add or Remove Programs. Then, the user can find the entry for Skype

and click on the entry labeled, “Click here for support information.” Follow the

hyperlink on the line entitled, “Product Updates” which launches the default web

browser and indicates whether the installed version is up-to-date.
