Default Re: So let's talk about how garbage Skype is for a second

I don't like Skype aids ads. They make me very unhappy. So, here's how to disable them shamelessly copy/pasted. #supporttherant

WINDOWS ONLY

The Skype Team forced us all to update to the latest version of Skype for one reason and one reason only: Money

They want us to see their new advertisements so they make more profit; they don't care how bad they are at programming and how bad they are at developing Skype.

Luckily, there is a solution to get rid of these advertisements and make Skype better (although it still has too many problems than the older versions).

1. Open-up the control panel.
2. Open-up "Network & Internet" then "Internet Options".
3. Go to the "Security" tab.
4. Click on the "Restricted Sites" icon, then the "Sites" button below it.
5. Type "https://apps.skype.com/" (without the quotes) into the text box and click "Add"
6. Close and apply the changes.
7. Restart Skype.
8. ???
9. Profit!
