-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Oh yeah, I forgot to mention that. Sly16, I read somewhere Skype is just encrypting its own protocol but not the traffic itself. Not sure whether it's true or not. In any case Skype users rely on a closed source protocol so no one really knows if it's secure and what else it may or may not do. I'm not saying it's insecure but if you want to be certain your connections are encrypted you might want to consider using other tools or techniques for voice communication that support open source encryption. As for voice my first idea would be VOIP and zfone. For text based communications (IRC or something) I'd rely on Tor.
