Skype for Windows 1.4.0.71 (Final)

Skype is the next phenomenon from the people who brought you KaZaA. Just like KaZaA, Skype uses P2P (peer-to-peer) technology to connect you to other users – not to share files this time, but to talk and chat with your friends. The technology is extremely advanced – but super simple to use… You’ll be making free phone calls to your friends in no time!Features:
-Free unlimited worldwide phone calls to other Skype users
-Superior sound quality – better than your regular phone
-Works with all firewall, NAT and routers – nothing to configure!
-Friends list shows you when your Skype friends are online and ready to talk or chat
-Super-simple and easy to use
-Your calls are encrypted “end-to-end” for superior privacy
-Based on cutting edge peer-to-peer technology developed by the creators of Kazaa and Joltid

In order to use Skype for Windows software, your computer must meet the following minimum system requirements:
-PC running Windows 2000 or XP
-400 MHz processor
-128 MB RAM
-15 MB free disk space on your hard drive
-Sound Card, speakers and microphone
-Internet Connection (either dial-up: minimum 33.6 Kbps modem, or any broadband: cable, DSL, etc.)
