Hey all,

I don't think "pop up a full featured window on the client" is your everyday phishing attack. This is easily exploited even for experienced users, since this is definitely not what you'd expect to originate from Skype (and for example Steam tends to annoy you with login popups sometimes, i.e. when changing your IP).

So yes, we don't need your average phishing attack, but this is surely a vulnerability and the publication hopefully forces M$ to do something about it.
