no, you don't have to. skype is a stand-alone.

Oh thank you, I see, it works like Windows messenger but it has it's own 
messenger set up and it's own contacts like Yahoo messenger or Windows 
messenger does, you don't actually have to have Windows messenger or Yahoo 
messenger to use Skype.. I hope that is the case because I don't use Windows 
messenger anymore or Yahoo either.. Thanks, Pat

Jaws will call out some stuff on skype as per default. to get full accesibility 
I do recommend to install the scripts for it, that someone gave you the links 
to here, earlier.

Then you will get audio feedback if someone signs on, writes a message and the 
message will be read to you, as soon as it appears on your messenger.

To start using skype or any other messenger for that matter, you just register 
an ID for yourself with the messenger application. 

the other person needs to have an ID there too and you can start using contacts 
into your messenger by adding their ID's to your list.

 

As soon as they accept your request to add them to your list, you will be able 
to 'see' when they come online or try and contact you.

you only do this process once for every new contact though. only takes a minute 
to do so.

then whenever you want to talk or write to a person, you just go down your 
contact list to find the person and then hit enter on their names and start 
your message to them. if they are online, they can answer you right away and 
you can either write or set up a telephone conversation, if both of you have 
headsets.

Thank you so much Chris..Does the person whose calling you show up on the 
moniter as like so and so has signed in or the screenreader will talk and tell 
you who is on line? So, when you install the Skype program and assign yourself 
and ID, do you have to type in the skype website and log into it with your 
skype ID to talk on it or just jump in and talk when someone is trying to 
contact you or you want to contact someone, I don't know how it works to 
contact someone once I get the program installed, I am just curious, maybe you 
can sort of tell me in an e-mail how you goabout calling someone on Skype or 
answering when someone calls after it is installed and you have your headphones 
with a mike in the headphone.. Sorry to be so dumb about this but have nevr 
tried to use it or have never had it and don't know anyone who has, , well I 
do, but they live too far off to show me how it works.. Thanks again, Pat
