Most of us have heard of that new virus that's spreading through Skype. If you've gotten infected, refer to this thread on how to clear it off. This thread is necessary for
Windows
users only. Mac and Linux are immune.
The first thing you'll need to do, is change your Skype password. This'll prevent the virus from logging itself in and sending most messages.
Next, go ahead and run this tool:
http://www.eset.com/us/onlinescan/
(use the online scan, not the full AV). If any malicious files show, proceed to block or remove them.
Finally, open Skype. Go to Tools > Options, and once there select 'Advanced Settings' or something of the sort. There, go to 'Manage other Applications' Access to Skype' and remove any unknown application.
You should be set to go by then. <3
