Описание: Another silent installation I accidentally got to see on my notebook. Thank you my friends @Skype for pushing un-solicited changes on my machine, without letting me know your at it neither before or after... ... As usual the new and "better" software introduced some new bugs as well, ones I've never seen. I guess its protocol obfuscation code running haywire, but whether this was ment as possible fix at skype login/central server protocol, a bid to introduce more complicated protocol after the supposed success at reverse-engineering or a new way to push more annoy-ware towards users I really dont know.. For the QA folks - open multi-chat, click on call quality wizard indicator, close the dialog, close the chat -> you should get the pointer pop-up and any other dialog seems to cause the other issue from there onwards, ending with GPF in a while. Update was from .113 to .116. Edit (2hrs after original post): the bug is actually old one, reported few weeks ago, just manifested itself in with new dialogs today - if you are in QA team you'll find it at 23rd May - whenever you close the CallQualityIndicator/Wizard dialog with Esc rather than clicking the proprietary UI 'close' control the dialog/components are not killed nicely and crap starts to happen. Thats what you get when you re-write standard OS UI controls in random place of your app...
