Umm just so everyone knows the newest version of the skype chat client breaks the firefox web browser by installing software(addons) without permission. What it is doing is changing the reload page settings and stuff like that so when you use tab browsing it auto-reload all tabs this means switching between tabs can take like mins even on a high-speed connection. You can go to TOOLS>ADDONS>Extensions and uninstall the addon to restore functionality to firefox. Not sure how this effects the chat client yet but it seems to still work ok. Anyways I hope this saves someone the headache i had this morning
