Skype and SoftIce

Preface:
I've installed softice recently on my box - actually nothing serious, just to play around. After some time I run Skype to talk to somebody, and it was kind of urgent.
"Skype is not compatible with system debuggers like SoftICE."
The bitch didn't start. So I dumped the softice.
Now I think Skype is excellent product, but WTF?

Version 1.1.0.79

Can't help myself, sorry:

1BAB10: 74 EB
87AE52: 74 EB

BTW there is an easier way to enable skype running: during boot when
asked to press ESC to change driverstudio config, press ESC twice, this will disable softice
for current boot.
