Skype Vista Gadget

Skype Vista Gadget is one of those handy little tools that makes life easier. It's a desktop gadget designed to give you quick access to your Skype conversations and contacts without interrupting your workflow. Instead of stopping everything just to check on messages, this gadget shows you what you need right on your desktop!

Easy Access to Skype Contacts

Once you install the gadget, it pops up on your screen and prompts you to install Skype4COM, which is an ActiveX component. This allows the gadget to connect with Skype. After that, it automatically checks if Skype is open or not.

Get Started with Simple Setup

To get everything rolling, you'll need to enable Skype API access control. This might sound tricky, but it’s really straightforward! Once that's done, this lightweight tool syncs up with your Skype account and gives you a neat little list of all your contacts along with their statuses.

Customize Your Experience

If you want a cleaner view, there’s an option to hide offline users. This way, your contact list stays short and sweet! Plus, if you click on any friend’s name in the list, you can start chatting right from your desktop. No need to switch over to the main Skype window every time someone messages you!

Stay Updated Without Distractions

You’ll also get notifications for new messages through the gadget itself. It even lets you choose whether or not to show system messages – how cool is that? And if you're into personalizing things, you can tweak how the gadget looks by adjusting its transparency and theme based on what suits your style.

A Handy Little Tool for Everyone

The Skype Vista Gadget is simple yet super useful! It lets you stay connected with friends and manage your contacts all in one small window without taking up too much space on your desktop. So why not give it a shot?
