Hi everyone,
   
    I'm evaluating Skype's security [www.skype.com], because I'm
thinking in recommend it to some of our clients (they all want some kind
of IM with voice chat). Since Skype is "starting" just now, there aren't
many information about possible vulnerabilities. I've analyzed its'
communication process and I haven't found anything compromising.
    I ask, in your analysis, have you ever experienced any security risk
with the software or some behavior that may affect the security of the
network?

    Thanks in advance.

Regards,
