It says: "A program for forwarding TCP/IP connections over Skype."
I filed Skype under "doesn't play well with others" long ago. It wasn't until
they tried to crack the business market that they even considered
interoperability, and it's still not aimed at end users. There are probably
ways of getting it working, but I haven't had a compelling reason to try since
I got SIP working. I'll take open and interoperable over closed single vendor
any day.
