Skype with video 4/11/2011

Sure as with any App like this, Netmeeting...Wifi w/o encryption, you just don't know who talking to, know how to configure, in my line of work and in the Bizz I'm in, Skype will throw up a red flag soon as you use, our Scanner pick up soon as you launch, so we target those people and either re-image their box computer or do a complete uninstall, it could allow a backdoor into our secure network, but we everyday users aren't giving up a whole lot and we can't be fired using LOL.

that's not the kind of security the article is talking about. skype (all skype except skype mobile for verizon for some reason) leaves its database files with all your personal info and contacts info completely unencrypted and, even worse, completely open permissions-wise to anyone or app on your phone.

That said, as long as you don't download any malicious apps to your phone you should be ok.

No concern of mine...You want to listen to me talking to my kids or my mother...Knock yourself out.

ugg, seriously people, are you just not even reading the article? this has nothing to do with listening in on calls.

Well then I'm glad that I was never able to get it installed. Guess I will just wait for the market Skype app to be updated for the TB.

But really, what is a parse error?
Thx!
