14 DAY TRIAL // If you're one of the numerous Skype users, you should really update your application to the latest version because the producers improved the program with several abilities. In an email sent to the registered users, Skype informed the users that a new version is waiting for their downloads, the new release being free for everyone, as we expected. "There's a brand spanking new version of Skype available now for download. To take advantage of all the latest features and improvements simply upgrade to the new version for free," the email begins.
As you know, Skype became one of the top Internet applications because it offers an incredible voice and sound quality bundled with minimum requirements and very low usage of the computer resources. According to the email message which was also sent to me, the new Skype comes with "improved sound quality, updated and user-friendly interface, many more features to help you to stay in touch more easily, share ideas, thoughts and express yourself."
Skype was recently affected by a long and annoying outage which kept the product unavailable for more than 24 hours. Moreover, it was reported today that Skype is used to distribute malicious files using simple chat messages sent through the application.
However, if the user has an antivirus solution or he avoids clicking on the links sent by unknown persons through Skype, the computer remains 100 percent protected and there is no threat for the data stored on it. If you're currently looking for a powerful antivirus solution able to defend your system and block the most threats aiming to harm your private data, you can download one from Softpedia using this link.
Obviously, Skype is an application which is also listed on Softpedia so, if you want to download the latest version of it, you can find it here.
