To all developers of this wonderful program!
Sometimes Skype causes the Internet Information Services to crash or even sometimes it is blocked.
I have traced this on 2 computers and on both the problem was skype, probably skype is loaded into memory before IIS server starts up, and probably cuz Skype is on pport 80 it somehow blocks IIS, and IIS show an unknown error loading, but when the skype is offline or not started on startup IIS works ok!!!
BUT this all happens every few time and there should be a solution for all of this!!!
One noticable thing, why the hell Skype takes so much CPU????, cuz of this consuption skype is not usable in gaming(Hangs all games for miliseconds and so), which would be a really big hit!!!
Nice proggy though!

My first question would be, why are you running Skype on a server with IIS?

Far safer would be just don't let IIS on your machine EVER.
But as posted above, just uncheck the port 80 checkbox and all is well.

Safer? Sorry but I need IIS on my machine MORE than I need Skype, IIS is intrisic to the OS, and previous versions of skype didn't have this problem. Both lived on the same machine happily.
If I kill skype, start IIS THEN start skype all is well.

In Skype, go to Tools -> Options -> Advanced -> Connection and then uncheck the option "Use port 80 and 443 as alternatives for incoming connections."
