When I tried to upgrade my skype this morning, it’s found that the skype.com site is not accessible here. However, if i apply proxy, it can been seen. I’m wondering if this site is becoming GFW’s new blackname.

Actually, the site is often not so easy to be loaded from this year on. I’m wondering that the p2p application is getting more attention by GFW system. Though GFW can’t block skype’s advanced communication, they are trying to stop more and more people downloading the tool from it’s web site.

    Isaac, I can’t access skype.com either, but nearly half of my friends could. They are all behind the GFW.

    I think blocking the skype.com is not necessary.Those who wants to download can do that on the tom.com, tom-skype, or the original copy from most download sites.

    Hello,

    Many internet providers (i.e: BTL in Belize) are blocking VoIP softwares such as Skype.

    The only solution that works is the “personalVPN” from Witopia. It costs 39,99$ per year and is really simple to use.

    Witopia personalVPN Homepage

    The personalVPN encrypte your connection to a US IP address, with this method your ISP can’t detect that you’re using Skype or another VoIP software!
    In addition, it protects your computer against hackers!

    It works on Windows 2000, Windows XP, Windows Vista, Macintosh OS X, and Linux.

    I hope we’ll see you back soon on Skype…

    I use Skype at home for taking to family and friend and Interoute’s voip client of business use. I guess its down to what you need from the service.
