Has anyone, tried to connect and run ethereal to see where it is
connecting? Does it change everytime?

Unless the client updates its connection info everytime, in preparation
for the next login, wouldn't the client always connect to the same host

Does Skype own a block of public Ips? Block em all :-)

I may be off track here. My wife tells me that all the time ;-)

Cheers,
Christian.
