NIS-2012 blocks Skype

Hi All,

 

Ihave been using Norton products since atleast 25 years. Yep, I loved the Commander. At the moment I am using Win7 and Norton Internet Security 2012.

 

After a fresh install (used all standard settings for NIS) something new happenen to my Skype connection.

 

Norton Smart Firewall had decided to block Skype and there fore Skype can not sign in :-(

 

I am flabbergasted. Why does NIS not recognize this very popular programm ? What went wrong ? Certaily the NIS programmers have heard of Skype before ?!

 

Kind regards and thanks for your help
