I think squid could solve this problem. Although skype can use |
| 11 |
port 80 for communication, afaik it does not use http-protocol, |
| 12 |
but some private one. |

So if you turn nat/masquarading on your router off and set up |
| 15 |
your squid to act as transparent proxy for http+ftp, it will work |
| 16 |
for valid http/ftp requests, but not for skype or any other IM... |
