Hi Francis, >From within skype, 1. Press alt t followed by o to enter the options menu. 2. arrow down until you hear "advanced settings". 3. press tab a few times, where you will hear two check boxes. The first is for skype to alert you if there is an update, the second is to download and install any updates. Uncheck both.
That should do it I think. Hth, Sarah -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Francis E.
