skype plugin not showing in plugins HELP

[Schroeder]

Hi all. I am trying to get the skype plug-in working, however it doesn't seem to be showing up under active plugins in Xlobby. All I should need to do is place the skype plugin in the plugins directory correct?

You need to (obviously) have Skype installed and configured to auto-logon, and you need ActiveS COM wrapper (free download) installed.

Also, in the plugin folder, there is a word document specifying exactly what you need to do to configure it etc.

Hope this helps,

yeah i've followed the documentation, several times, skype is installed and set to autologin.
Maybe the issue i'm having is i'm not entirley sure i downloaded the correct "Actives com Wrapper" I checked skypes site but not sure. Where can I download it?

Would this stop the plugin from showing up in the active plugins in Xlobby?

Aha, seems that the KaosLabs website is down for some reason:
