Skype Setup & Testing

    You can test out the LiveType chat Instant Messaging in the Skype pop-up on your computer screen by right clicking your mouse on the Skype pop-up, clicking "Add a Contact", typing "echo123" without the quotation marks, clicking onto the "A" icon in the 2nd line from the top, typing a message into the lowest box on the window that pops up, & then pressing the "Enter" key on your keyboard. Skype "echo123" will send you a Chat message back containing the message you just sent them & the date & time that you sent it. This confirms that you have Skype set up properly for Chat Instant Messaging. Now all you'll need is the "Contact Name" we use in Skype which we'll send you by encrypted email when you book an appointment for Chat counselling. You'll also need to email us back the "Contact Name" you use for yourself in Skype (you'll be able to use our encryption program to do this after we send you our encrypted email).
