Skype Warning for Small Business
If you’re one of the growing number of online businesses that uses Skype for free phone calls across the road or across the planet I’m sure you will be pleased to know that there is a Skype virus loose on the Net.
It won’t come to you via Skype and and it doesn’t actually infect Skype but it will create havoc on your computer.
It comes in the form of an email that claims to contain version 1.4 of Skype’s voice over Internet Protocol software. Opening the attachment with the email doesn’t install Skype at all but it does install the Trojan.
Skype did release a new version of its software back on October 10 but it does not distribute any of its software via email.
