Skype 3.0 for Windows beta update and the Garage
Today we put out an update to Skype 3.0 for Windows beta. Last week we also put one out, but discovered a bad bug and pulled it in a few hours. Today’s update has this bug fixed, as well as many others. Most important fixes regard voice and video quality and HTTP/SOCKS proxy not working previously. Read more and see the download info on the [Garage blog](http://blogs.skype.com/sites/garage/2006/11/skype_for_windows_30_beta_upda.html).
I guess this also acts as a “launch” of sorts for the whole [Garage](https://developer.skype.com/SkypeGarage). It’s a place where we will be distributing various unstable/preview/beta versions of Skype, as well as patches and contributions we’ve made to open source projects, and other experiments we do ourselves around Skype. Read the [introduction](http://blogs.skype.com/sites/garage/2006/10/welcome_to_skype_garage.html) for more, and take a look at the things already there. The most interesting ones to me are the [Database projects](https://developer.skype.com/SkypeGarage/DbProjects). The developers sat down and went “hmm… we need to build a database on a shoestring budget. And we need to scale it to.. uh.. let’s say one billion people. That should do it for a while.” The Garage Database Projects site has a lot of interesting material and actual code on this.
So if you want to follow the bleeding edge of Skype, [subscribe](http://feeds.feedburner.com/SkypeGarage) to the [Garage blog](http://blogs.skype.com/sites/garage/) for any future beta/preview Skype updates, and come participate in things before they reach the general public.
And it still requires admin rights on Vista. COME ON. Fix this ASAP!
Yeah… Admin rights on Vista is pretty retarded… It wont autostart when Windows starts for that reason ;/ I’ve tried everything
Otherwise, great piece of software, no doubt!

Skype 3.0 Beta Firefox Extension Disables Google Notebook
installing skype 3.0 beta’s firefox extension makes writing and editing within google notebook impossible. the problem is probably skype’s way of problematic implementation of its firefox plugin. Removing the skype plugin fixed my problem.
this is more of a bug report, couldn’t find a better forum/place to report it.
It is very nice program
but is has the following bugs:
1- when you are calling someone and you got message from another person and you want to add him or her to your contact list, the program hungs and stop working
2- Also the prgram is a little bit heavy and takes alot of system resourses 23% of CPU
With my best regards
