Hello,
I remember last year someone told me Skype can search for old members but how? I do know Skype is Instant Messenger and also for PC calls. Is it true to search for old members? How does the process work? Can it search for old non Skype members such as Yahoo!? I have a inactive Yahoo! member name I would like to use a program and search each and entire database and see if it comes up with the same member but maybe with a different messenger or maybe still Yahoo but maybe they have a different. Is that possible? I tried sending the member an email, no luck returned delivery. Tried members.yahoo.com directory, no luck. Tried adding the person, no luck it failed. Tried viewing the profile, no luck it does not exist. My other question is. Can Skype automatically connect to every database out there accross country? Thank you.
on the main skype window click “Search for Skype Users” and fill out the info and it should pop up once found 🙂

We are running out of options. NO members found on Skype. What would be the other options?
I really think I should search the entire database networks. In Directory and people who are not in the directory. My question is, if I run a search from database to database would it find a close match to the name? If so how do I perform an International database search. From Country to Country.
I’m not sure I understand what you are searching for? You want to use Skype to search for non-Skype users?
Who are you looking for?

Fanatic,
I sent you a PM. Here is the copy of it but anyone can jump into this thread. Yes I am willing to search over millions or billions of members. Copy is below.
Hi,
I thought I would give you the inactive name through PM. Did you read my original open thread post where I stated what I tried and everything failed where I am not finding anything? I tried using Skype for members. The old Yahoo name is hotty4_ever_51
My questions was. I try my best to explain. Is it possible to search every database there is on the networks for users in the directory and out of the directory? If so, since that name is currently “inactive” every where possible. While searching/scanning the entire network databases, will it find an exact or similar to the user name or will it just search for the user name I gave? Meaning if they still use Yahoo but don’t have the new name while searching the network will it find a close match?
I still don’t understand what you mean when you say “search every database” for users in the directory. What databases are you referring to?
Do you mean on all the different IM networks (Yahoo, Skype, MSN, AIM, ICQ, QQ, etc.)?
Generally the best way to find all references to someone is just to do a search using Google. This would find all public profiles and other references. I did a Google search for hotty4_ever_51 and all it found was THIS discussion.
Hi Fanatic,
Can you find me Skype user ids from the U.S. ?
If so How many? 10K, 100K, 1,000,000 or 10,000,000?
Thanks. karlj
Search for Online Skype, Yahoo, AIM, ICQ, Google Talk and MSN Messenger Users with search-im.com, this could be of use to you (searches Skype, AIM, Yahoo, etc)
