Skype has released an external security evaluation of its product; you 
can find it at http://www.skype.com/security/files/2005-031%20security%20evaluation.pdf
(Skype was also clueful enough to publish the PGP signature of the 
report, an excellent touch -- see 
http://www.skype.com/security/files/2005-031%20security%20evaluation.pdf.sig)
The author of the report, Tom Berson, has been in this business for many
years; I have a great deal of respect for him.
