There's 2 bugs in 5.5 (That I've seen). If you quit it, then run it again straight after. Its like it doesnt quit / shut down properly. There's a file (under users/username/appdata / Skype folder). It doesnt remove itself. Unless you go there and delete it. You'll know because it comes up with an I/O error. And the next time, you run it, you'll have to type in your password again. The other is Skype Home, it just wont disappear. And the ads (I mentioned earlier)	Speedy Gonzales (78)

So I signed out from File-sign out but I still can't shut Skype down. On my own computer I can. On this one I have to go to Device manager and stop it's service any ideas?	gary67 (56)

And if I ran it again (and didnt wait for at least 5-10 secs), it came up with an I/O error. I had to quit it again, then type in my password again. Or if she wants to use the same version, I would uninstall it delete all of its folders then reinstall it	Speedy Gonzales (78)
