Please share with the other users what you think about this file. What does this file do? Is it legitimate or something that your computer is better without?

I'm reading all new comments so don't hesitate to post a question about the file. If I don't have the answer perhaps another user can help you.
This program (or part of it) is useful if you actually use Skype Click to call (for example when you are surfing the web and a website leaves a number you can call, Skype click to call will recognize it's a number, and upon clicking on it you will call that number with Skype credit. If the number is a free number, you can call it for free via Skype).
I don't use this feature, and annoys me: Sometimes it recognizes random numbers on the internet as Skype numbers, and I don't like that, so I have now removed this feature as I don't really use it anyways.
