Skype

Does anyone have this under Vista? I got a system monitor from Sysinternals
and notice that this software is constantly accessing the hard drive every
30 seconds or so? I don't know what it has to keep doing this and was
wondering if there was setting to make it run more in the background until a
call comes?

Thanks for the help, Rich

Skype runs as a peer2peer system. When Skype is running, your computer is
part of Skype's network and participating in moving data through that
network.

Cheers.
