I know its a bit off topic, but since we are on the subject of Skype, i have some questions on computer to computer phone calls...<br><br>1) Does an isp know what username you are connecting to skype? <br><br>2) Also, does the isp or the skype server know the person you are connecting with? <br>
<br>3) Also, from what i understand, when you connected to skype, the username is associated with the IP i am connecting with correct?<br><br>I would really appreciate some help on this subject.<br><br><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">

The Skype begin refusing payments making on their site through the Tor:<br>
I cannot make payments to them from my credit card about a half of month.<br>
Today I find in their FAQ that one of possible causes of that is "Using<br>
an anonymous proxy to access the internet".<br>

Could this be because the exit node you are using is not located in the same country where your credit card is registered and so Skype are deploying their anti-fraud system?<br><div><div></div><div class="h5"><br>

(Their technical support<br>
could not inform me about concret causes of that problem).<br>
It seems as a next step of attack of anonymity enemies against making<br>
payments with using the Tor.<br>
