and with M$'s "We know what you want (but we really do not)" attitude of late, there'll be a lot of the other garbage too. such as the program itself becoming horridly unstable and invasive, while forcing you to connect to some social media service, while using your real name. then in no time at all, M$ will buy yet another company and the rights to their IM client and protocol, and crap all over skype just as much as they have with MSN, and decide to close skype too.

Re: skype downgrade
it stores them on your client only. then they receive them when both are next online. Useful in groups- as one person being on means i get spammed with all 3k messages.
