I think you want to prevent non-contacts from messaging you. To do
that, do these things:
- Alt+T for the Tools menu.
- O for Options.
- Arrow down about four times to Privacy Settings.
- Tab once for the radio buttons that set who can call you, and use arrows to
set as you like.
- Do the same for the other settings, including IMs.
The options are different for different Skype versions. In the latest
Skype 4.0 release, you go from calls to incoming phone calls to video
and then to IMs. I don't remember how things are ordered in Skype 3.
Be sure to hit the Save button when done changing options. Enter
alone tends not to be enough.

Hi listers,
A few minutes ago, I got a chatting message at the bottom of the screen
from someone I don't know and I don't have in my skype contact list. He gave
me information about where to go on the internet to read the Kuran. Not only I
am not interested, but also I was quite uncomfortable that someone I never
accepted on my skype contact list has access to my account and can send me
messages. Anybody knows how that happens and how can I block such kind of
contacts?
Regards to all
God Bless
