Simple String of Characters Crashes Skype
http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,2817,2485271,00.asp
A bug in Microsoft's communication program means sending or receiving
a message that says "http://:"; (without the quotation marks) will
crash Skype. Rebooting or logging in and out does not help; it simply
crashes again at launch. The glitch, according to VentureBeat, works
on Windows, Android, and iOS; Skype on Mac and the Windows 8 Modern
app, however, appear unaffected.
