So like, do you guys know ways to access Skype without having to install anything?
At school, I only have Internet access on my School Laptop, and I don't have admin rights on it, so i can't install anything.
Although, I can run things that don't require installation, such as Minecraft, or NotePad++
However, no Skype :/
So do you guys know a way in which I can access my Skype chat through the browser or without installation?
This is mainly because I live 7 hours behind the majority of the people here, and those of you I have on Skype would normally be asleep by the time I get home from school and then you'd wake up by the time I hit the sack for the day :c
Thanks (:

From what I know...

http://gizmodo.com/you-can-now-skype...wser-485492269

you gotta use Microsoft's web browser Outlook...though...there's a download (for chrome its in the chrome store and you can find it) and idk if thtll run...

another way is to just put skype on a usb stick

CNET Downloads (Badges)

or the skype client itself

BE WARNED - I've hear people saying that running skype from usb drives have been known to break your computer...completely...literally break...

course...I'm just a panda...wtf do I know :l

I don't think I can do the USB thing, because you need another windows computer to do that with, right? to install it and put the installed files onto the USB?
for one, I don't even have a USB, I have a 500gb harddrive and I can't go carrying that around everywhere .-.
and, my other computer is a Mac, so I don't think that would work :c
But yeah, I'll try the first link out sometime, to see if it works :3 thanks for the quick reply!

I am NOT sure if this will work for you, but you can try:

For the Portable Skype:

NOTE: If you are unsure about Portable Apps, just Google around and do your own investigation about it and than make up your mind if you want to still try the portable apps.

Alternatively, if you have a smart phone (iPhone, Andriod, Windows Phone or BlackBerry), and also have access to WiFi or 3G, you can use the Skype Apps on the Smartphone:

So Good Luck

Can confirm portable steam and google chrome works with portable version on school laptops, assuming you got them from big guillard (i think, screw politics) which i think every state gets in highschool.

well, I'm not in Australia :3
Also, my Phone has 3G (it's run out though, need to recharge credit), but the company thing I've subscribed to, Vodafone RO, doesn't allow Skype via 3g >.>
