Maybe you could create an empty read-only file named "1.com" and place it here: C:\Documents and Settings\[name]\Local Settings\Temp\12\1.com Then Skype would be unable to create the file. (Does Skype always use "12?
-Or if your file system is formated NTSF and you don't use any 16-bit applications you could disable execute permission for ntvdm.exe. I saw this as a suggestion for stopping certain trojans. (I have FAT32, so CACLS won't change the execute permission, ATTRIB can't do that... I tried renaming ntvdm.exe, but windows prompty recreated it. I don't know what system process did that, or if it can be disabled.)
