For all Skype fans:

"The latest version of Skype (partly owned by eBay) is causing major
irritations amongst web designers and users. By default when downloaded and
installed it also installs a small utility unbeknown to the user. This
utility effectively reformats any telephone &/or fax. nos. on a web page
including adding a little flag icon and also embeds a link behind these to
link to Skype."

(While you're there, have a look around the RISKS-Forum Digest, if you are not 
familiar with it ...)
