Ed, thanks for passing this along. I somehow hadn't heard about the 
Skype trojan, and will keep the application unlaunched when I don't 
need it.

I actually went about five weeks with Skype as my primary long 
distance and wasn't satisfied with the quality, so went back to 
Verizon's unlimited plan.
