When the viral infection is spreading at 4000 messages a minute, by the time the Skype team informs the IE, Chrome, Firefox, Opera anti-spam teams and waits for them to add it to their blacklist, they might as well not do anything. What's wrong with scanning links in chat for malware on the Skype servers so that they can immediately stop such messages from spreading? |

Chrome team does a pretty good job of finding malware themselves.
What's wrong with scanning links is the scanning part. A third party has NO BUSINESS in seeing any of the bytes in my conversation.
If I'm a political dissident in a repressive country, I don't want MS to have the OPTION of handing my conversation over to my government.
