i really dont understand this fuzzing: under LINUX its that easy to run multiple Skype-Instances .. wonder why the coders at skpye dont implement that into a common codebase for all OS-versions .. albeit there is no real alternative – Skype sucks

Hi Laurynas,

I tried the launcher you linked to, it seems to work fine, so long as you are running the latest version Skype 3.8.0.154

I assume it’s the same as this one:
http://forum.skype.com/index.php?showtopic=195561

But just wondering what is the advantage over this one here:

http://forum.skype.com/index.php?showtopic=88055

which I wrote about previously here:

Thanks for your comment,

Ben

“Multiple Skype Loader” by Laurynas

for Skype 3.8.0.154

Now you don’t have to create different Windows user accounts for each instance of Skype.
With this loader you can run multiple Skype instances at the same time on the same Windows user account.
Also this loader is able to transmit commands for Skype command line.
