I have reinstalled a number of times.
When talking on Skype, it seems to work OK with rare dropouts.
No, This is while Skype is idle and not being used.
I look in the Task Bar and see Skype has dropped out,and rebooting, by itself.
Must be a pain for my contacts, to see me what looks like opening and closing Skype every 10 mins or so.
