Create your own Portable Skype

First download Skype from Filehippo or Skype.com

After download it ,Install Skype
go to Skype folder search for skype.exe
copy skype.exe into your thumbdrive For example G:\Skype
create a bat files inside the folder
Open it with notepad and

Paste

skype.exe /datapath:"Data" /removable
rmdir /s /q "%userprofile%\Application Data\Skype"
rmdir /s /q "%userprofile%\Application Data\skypePM"

and save as skype.bat or any name you like

Hate the command prompt?
You can hide it in background by
creating a file name filename.vbs (just a example)

Open it with notepad and
Paste
Set WshShell = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
obj = WshShell.Run("Skype.bat", 0)
set WshShell = Nothing


Save it and close

When you want to run Portable Skype open the Skype.vbs file
There you have it  now got your own Portable Skype on your thumbdrive

Another Way

Download the .paf provided by portableapps
and install to a specific folder in your thumbdrive
http://portableapps.com/apps/internet/skype_portable

Hope Everyone Enjoys
