The answer to why this file is installed on your computer might be very simple.Just google the words 'echelon' and check into the recent history of the Bush administration and the worldwide spying of your administration and the possibility that the NSA might have something to do with it might occur to you.When asked to cooperate with Big Brother most companies are only too eager to to comply.Look at the record of Yahoo in China if you doubt my words.THey did exactly that: spy and rat on theit members ,some of which were sent to prison .It seems that in the name of profit they are willing to banish privacy and even democracy,as the only crime of these chinese members was to advocate exactly that:democracy.

This is pretty scary. If Skype is collecting information like this, I don’t think I’d consider being online without using privacy software like Anonymizer.com.
