Skype Toolbars 5.5.7896

Skype Toolbars are downloadable add-ons for web browsers that allow users to integrate Skype functionality directly into their browsing experience. Developed by Skype Technologies S.A., these toolbars work with popular web browsers such as Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox, and Google Chrome.

Once installed, the Skype Toolbar provides users with convenient and quick access to Skype features directly from their browser. Users can make calls, send instant messages or texts, view contact information, and search for other Skype users all from within the toolbar.

The Skype Toolbar also includes a feature called "highlighting," which automatically detects phone numbers and Skype usernames on web pages, making it easy for users to make a call or send a message with just one click. Additionally, the toolbar features an address book synchronization function, allowing users to keep their Skype contacts up-to-date and easily accessible.

Skype Toolbars are free to download and use, but require a Skype account to function. They are designed to enhance the user's browsing experience by providing a seamless integration of communication tools directly into their browser.
