Skype Complete Freeze with Vista

  

Skype

Recently I encountered a problem with my machine running Vista 64bit Ultimate and freezing completely upon running skype. This happens with nearly all version of Skype (I say nearly, because I haven’t had time to try every single version of Skype, but at least for the latest 3.8 and 4.0 beta 2 at the time of posting).

This has baffled me for around about 3 days, until I suddenly remembered a setting which I modifed while trying to install an unsigned driver.
