Nothing to do with scripts, but what you need to do is enable global hot keys. To answer a call it is alt page up and to hang up alt page down. ----- Original Message ----- From: "terrcooper" <terry.cooper@xxxxxxx>

When you've figured out a few things, feel free to add me. My skype and windows live contact information is always below my name as it's a part of my signature now to make it easier for people to requestcontact information --- if they dare! (slow smile).

Alex! many thanks indeed for all that very helpful information. I'vegot everything I need to get me going, so I'll try and see what happens.

The current version number is 550, but he is soon to release an upgrade to thesewhich will be announced on the skype english list when he is ready. I amby no means a technical person, and there are lots of people who use skype better than I do, you can send files to people with it as well as voice and text chat. If you register your mobile phone you can send text messages with it if you create a skypeout account, which means you can also use skypeto ring ordinary landline and mobile phones around the world. I have usedit to successfully talk to someone on my windows live contact list who comesfrom east China, and it only costs 1.4p per minute to ring a mobiel there.Finally, I would recommend you go to: http://www.marrie.org this is Sarah Alawami's internet site and she is the skype english list moderator, where she has some mp3 training modules you can download andlisten to which will assist you in familiarising yourself with skype. Shehas other links and information there to gaming for the blind if you are interested in that, and stuff about her podcast feed. A skype phone is a phone which you can use as a cordless phone or which you can use for skype. I don't have one, I prefer a USB microphone plugged into my computer. I have a logitech one which is quite literally plug and play. You might have to configure your sound settings once within skype if youhave some initial teething troubles, but once that's done, if you have todo it, you are away. Skype to skype voice calls are completely free, and I think my record of talking to someone on one single session is eight hours. Enjoy yourself when you are up and running, as if you have a fast stablebroadband connection, the voice quality is near cd quality. If you don'tlike the idea of a microphone, you could always go down the road of purchasing a headset with a microphone. Two of my friends use themsuccessfully and the voice quality is nearly as good as a desk microphone.?Good luck.
