Oh yeah, and do you *really* trust a company to produce *secure*
software when there are discrepencies between public advisories and
those advisories listed on the Skype security advisory website?

http://skype.com/security/advisories.html has THREE posted security
advisories.  But a quick search at http://nvd.nist.gov shows Skype has
FIVE public vulnerabilities.

This kind of *oversight* doesn't exactly give me the warm fuzzies...

Thanks,
