Skype 5.8 introduced an auto updater service, SkypeUpdate. Skype 5.10 or 6.0 removed that and instead the updates (from 5.10 onwards) were via Windows Update [https://support.skype.com/m/en/faq/FA12050/how-can-i-update-skype-for-windows-desktop] (Skype 5.10 from Windows Update [http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2727727]) But this has now been pulled by Microsoft ("DisableVersionCheckPolicy only applies to Skype application. Microsoft remove Skype from WSUS." - [http://community.skype.com/t5/Windows/Does-DisableVersionCheckPolicy-disable-updates-through-Windows/m-p/1245182#M94498]. Skype 6.0 removes the Skype auto updater Service.
