Cripes - Skype is alive!

My tentative foray into the Skype world showed just how immediate it can potentially be, and how the "dodgy's" (you know, spammers, vaigra salesmen etc.) are everywhere.

Within 10 seconds of completing the sign up and testing my setup, my PC beeps and there was a porn service with a pre-recorded welcome message on Skype for me!
It didn't take too long to learn how to block callers, and to figure out that I will only have it activated after pre-arranging a time by email with my contacts.

However, I must make sure that my contacts do know that I can be available on Skype - hence the link on my new public Netvibes page.
