you are very fast in distributing [-]... and then you start talking about the problem... that's why I left the game completely at the moment...

I wouldn't expect you to keep a track of those, but a majority of reports in the bugs forum are not actually bugs. There are 1042 archived report topics at this moment and of those 616 are closed as non-issues (this is since 2012). If a report it closed but for some reason later not deemed as a bug I can of course re-open it still. If you are not happy with the process, then sorry, can't help you, but don't blame me for your decisions. But enough of this unnecessary banter now please.

And back to topic, I would consider the matter of this thread to be closed, a long time ago already. The issue of the thread opener was not an issue at all (though he was very strong at first to determine that it was our problem, of which I am a tad displeased since the efforts to keep the server and connections fast are strong, but of course if everything else seems to work fine, as they usually do, no wonder one has such suspicions then). But I didn't even know either of such Skype add-on even having the possibility to mess the browser in such a way (nor that one would autoinstall itself like that..which I wouldn't like myself), should perhaps add it somewhere in FAQ ("slow connection? check these things!"). And the one actual issue found on the side was fixed.

Yeah, other online sites have disabling Skype add-in as one of the top troubleshooting items.

The add in scans anything that is going to the browser, any sequence of numbers with any delimeters between them as a potential phone number, that is checked against its table of possible phone number formats.  Then, Skype either gives up, or turns the sequence of numbers that browser is trying to display to a clickable phone number, which by clicking initiates Skype phone call.

I imagine a page like Route Management makes Skype add-in go completely crazy, with 100s of number combinations to analyze...

... just to mention it ... I'm not the one saying that an application in a browser is always bether than a propietary client ... I often hear arguments like "it runs everywhere" and "you don't have to worry about incompatibilities" and "you don't have problems with the local installation" and things like that. I always told, that you have the same problems on this "platform" ...
