Hello, so my skype every single time i try to call, or answer a call, or change a picture crashes. It's with today's skype - 6th version. 5th version doesn't even work, and 4th works good. But 4th looks so outdated :/ . Any1 got similar problem?

just hope Microsoft rolls over and does something about it

I'm waiting for at least half of year. I used 4th version.. it was fine.. but after windows update 4th version says that it does not support my OS...
