When you dowload it, where do you Save it to?
Have you tried saving the Skype .exe to your Desktop>double-click>install
from there?

I have the same problem. Did you get any help to figure it out?

Mick,
When I download Skype it doesn't appear anywhere on my computer even when
I search for the skypeinstall.exe.
It isn't in my desktop either.
THanks

The file name is SkypeSetup.exe
Are you getting it from the Skype site?
http://www.skype.com

Have you tried saving it to the Downloads folder under your login name?
When you open the folder where you downloaded it to, do you see a button on
the toolbar named "Compatibility Files"?
Are you using Internet Explorer 7 or Firefox? I was able to DL it using
both with no problems.
