Skype will not give audio notifications.  However, if you download the program 
called Skype talking, I believe from Skypetalking.com, you can then get 
notifications of people as they sign in and out and much more audio feedback 
for the program.

Hi list, This is not related to the utility e-mail, but am using skype and am 
new at it.. I run a Jaws screen-reader and have a problem using instant 
messaging.. Seems I can only use it if I am on line and a contact or my 
contacts or one of them is on line.. When they send me an im, I can send them 
one back by tabbing to edit in the conversation panel and then pressing enter, 
but don't seem to be able to do this or send ims unless both of us are on 
line.. The Skype home page says you can send someone an instant message when 
they are not on line and then when come on line they can read your im.. This is 
not Skype Premium, it is the free version of Skype.. Also, I am wondering why 
it does not announce audibly when someone comes on line, such as a contact.. 
Windows messenger would announce that audibly by saying" Rag doll has just 
signed in or something to that effect, because I used to use Windows messenger 
and also did not have trouble sending instant messages with it, but Skype doe 
snot seem to say out loud when someone is on line or comes on line;. There is a 
green light by their name or icon, and also I can tabover and it will say they 
are on line but by the time I do all that, tab over and all, when I get ready 
to send an instant message or something or call them, they are already showing 
off line again.. Can anyone tell me more about the free version of Skype and 
how it works as far as a screenreader like Jaws and if it announces audibly 
when they are coming on line, is there a setting to make it announce that? Also 
how do I send an im when they are off line for  them to read when theycome on 
line with Jaws, so far I have to be on line and the contact does too, or that's 
what I have had to do so far.. Thanks, Pat

  No... and why several at once? You are asking for problems here if the apps 
use the same Windows files. If you don't like the Windows uninstaller try a 
package called Revo Uninstaller.
