I respectfully want to let everyone know that the US Gov't has been wanting to "Record" Skype calls for some time and had even offered a $4Billion dollar contest to hack Skype to record it..this is because Skype uses no "master encryption keys", but instead users generate encryption keys between each other therefore conversations are hard to "tap"..or intercept and reassemble...this keeps you safe. I would put any software that records Skype under serious suspect and advise you all to seriously think about this before installing any such software. - Skype was bought by eBay for $4.2 Billion with an agreement that Skype would stay an European company, then eBay began to lose money on it and wanted to get rid of it.. MS stepped up to the plate, valued still around $4Billion they bought Skype for 2x of what its worth.. hmm where did this extra $4Billion come from... prob in my guess the US Govt.. so they can get their dirty little paws on it.. its all "Google'able".. I remember reading the "Skype Hacking contest" as if it were yesterday with total disbelief that the US Govt would even offer that much for some thing like this... ask yourself Why..

This software will expire at the end of the year. Thanks, but no thanks.
I'll rather keep the Extralabs Skype Recorder that was given away some time back. It will never expire.

Well, despite being one of the best Skype Recording Tools on the market right now, it looks like this GAOTD is not the last version of this program (v 5.0), which supports VIDEO RECORDING as well (including Video Games).

So THUMBS UP from me with some reservations though, because it seems to me that the developer of this nice tool has given us the previous limited edition of this program in order to induce us to buy the last one supporting video recordings.

If you are willing to spend some mooney for this kind of software my suggestion is to buy a license od SUPERTINTIN, which is far better than today's giveaway.

Personally, I believe that the easiest and maybe most flawless way to record VIDEO CALLS is to use FREE SCREEN CAPTURE APPS like CAMSTUDIO, SUPER PICK 4.0 or even FREE real-time game or screen recorder like YOURECORDER FREE EDITION, since they can all capture in real time anything you see or hear on the computer screen!!

That being said, among the FREEWARE ALTERNATIVES to record chats, calls and, unlike today's giveway, even VIDEO CALLS for FREE, my first choice is definitely a FREE TOOL called "ooVoo".

This is a stunning video conferencing and chat application coming with an amazingly built-in FREE VIDEO RECORDING OPTION, a feature that, as far as I know, is missing in any other similar FREE APP and even in many of its shareware competitors out there.

The recorded VIDEO can be saved as AVI, FLV or even as HTML embedded video, so as to be placed on a blog or web page: COOL, isn't it??

Another nice FREE chat and video recording app is also SIGHT SPEED.

In short it's a SKYPE equivalent software with an impressive array of features, including a cool BUILT-IN VIDEO CONFERENCE RECORDING option, meaning that with this tool no third party software is needed to record video calls:

Besides that, there is also an excellent FREE software called FREECORDER4, I highly recommend you using, to record Web Audio & Video (included video calls and video chats, of course), and then save them on the HD of your PC as you hear or watch them!!

Please note that this is a revolutionary new browser-based video/audio recording and conversion program, enabling users to save and even convert any kind of videos from over 1000 sites.

And it can automtically create MP3s files from ANYTHING you hear on your PC, including radio, worldwide TV channels and, of course, Skype calls!!

Honestly I can't figure out why this amazing APP is FREE, unlike today's GAOTD: that's funny, isn't it dudes?? LOL!!

Other freeware SKYPE VOICE (no video) CALLS recording applications, worthy to be mentioned, are also "iFree Skype Recorder" and "MP3 Skype Recorder v.3.1"

Finally, let me mention three cool FREE programs to have fun with SKYPE (Google them as I can't post more links today):

1) FeyRecorder

2) Lie Detector

3) Skype Answering Machine

The first one mentioned above is an Audio Recording and Text-to-Speech converting program, allowing you not only to convert any sound sources (tapes, DVDs, live concerts, TV sounds, online radio, video games and Skype voice calls) into audio files to save on your HD, but also to listen to your text documents at any time with NATURAL VOICES: cool, isn't it??

The second one detects the "stress level" of people you are talking with over SKYPE: very funny, LOL!

Finally, the last one is a cool FREE VOICE ANSWERING MACHINE, enabling SKYPE users to even record a VIDEO GREETING MESSAGE of their choice while recording their voice message.

Simply amazing app to add on your arsenal, dudes!!

Of course, it would have been nice if the developer of today's giveaway had added in his software some of the cool features provided by the FREE APPLICATIONS described above, instead of giving away to us for 24 hours only the last but one (limited) edition of his program.

Hope he had learned my lesson now, but I have some doubts about that!!

What do you make of it, dudes??


Cheers from Italy!!

Ciao
Giovanni

In the first message under "Installation and Registration" #6 says:

6. This version is based on AthTek Skype Recorder v4.5 which is not able to record video calls yet.

Unfortunately, the entire Athtek site appears to be down on 2012-01-31 at 02:50 CST.
