Warezov Trojan horse to target Skype users

Miscreants have again adapted the Warezov Trojan horse to target Skype users, Websense Security Labs warned on Thursday.
The attack is similar to threats that target instant-messaging applications. A targeted Skype user will receive a chat message with the text "Check up this" and a link to a malicious executable called file_01.exe on a website, Websense said in an alert. If the user runs the file, several other files are downloaded and run, it said.

blog updates -free calls with skype, jboss in BPM Space !

Skype offers free calling
Skype just launched a FREE calling for its US users to call within US & Canada. Yes, you heard me right, FREE. Local landline calls (i think) within the US are generally free, adding mobile within that takes it to another dimension !

Got a WIFI / 3G enabled PDA with skype (though very very few such devices are actually available and sold) and you have an almost nill telephone bill for local calling.

Though skype will never be able to pull that off in India & some other countries which desperately need these kind of facilities, it will be another telecom revolution if such a facility is indeed available. Imagine calling your friends anywhere across the world for RS 1 for 3 minutes (Rs 20 is the standard browsing charge for a high quality broadband at a net centre) from India !..

Ideas for Techies to extend Skype

A while ago I was interacting with Julian Bond, CTO of Ecademy.com, and he emailed me a list of ideas to throw open to Software developers, who would like to build their reputation as outstanding developers by demonstrating their code rather than just a CV. Any one up for a challenge ? Julian is a highly respected developer and thinker, having single handedly developed the architecture and code of the Ecademy platform. He emailed a list of ideas for the Indian software development community to extend the now ubiquitious Skype. Skype now has over 5.5 million users and growing fast with a current campaign running to encourage users to share skype and reach out to 100 million users.

 

Skype, Founders Charged With Racketeering

It's fairly well known that Skype's founders won't come to the US for fear of lawsuits arising out of their part in building Kazaa... but it looks like they may now have another lawsuit on their hands as well.
