(Note: Your antivirus may block some adservers, but not Skype itself, this is fine as long as it doesn't majorly block Skype) Try to run some tests to ensure it's not something third-party either, such as an antivirus blocking Skype. I don't know much about the Mac end, but try updating anything related to video driver updates.
Skype uses a rendering engine to draw some things. If that's not it, it may be your video card is having trouble processing some things from Skype. If you're STILL freezing up, there may be a huge group call you're in (100+ users, 1000+ msgs), try leaving those group calls, and then hiding them. You can also try to add skype-bin at the end. If that didn't fix the problem, try these commands in terminal. (You will still loose some history)īefore screwing with commands, delete your history.
