    skype for OS10

    When I download skype for an early version of OS10, all I get is the screen full of what looks like code, not a package to install. I've tried both current verions and earlier versions with the same result.
    Any suggestions?

    That is because you are opening the file instead of downloading it. What browser are you using to download and what Skype version are you downloading that causes such problems.

    Maybe the file became corrupted or contaminated by some sort of bug or it can also be that some programs are trying to block you from using skype.

    try downloading it using mozilla firefox. It may help you download it without problems.

    Use a download manager for a much safer and complete download of files you wanted.
